What impact will time shifting of television content have on the URI scheme?
Will the scheme allow referencing television content which has been cached
locally and it not the current real time broadcast content?

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line
Internet-Drafts
directories.
Title : Uniform Resource Identifiers for
Television
Broadcasts
Author(s) : D. Zigmond, M. Vickers
Filename : draft-zigmond-tv-url-03.txt
Pages : 5
Date : 07-Jan-00
World-Wide Web browsers are starting to appear on a variety
of
consumer electronic devices, such as television sets and
television
set-top boxes, which are capable of receiving television
programming
from either terrestrial broadcast, satellite broadcast, or
cable. In
this context there is a need to reference television
broadcasts
using the URI format described in [RFC 2396]. This document
describes a widely-implemented URI scheme to refer to such
broadcasts.
A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-zigmond-tv-url-03.txt
Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login
with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After
logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
"get draft-zigmond-tv-url-03.txt".
A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt
Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
Send a message to:
mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-zigmond-tv-url-03.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document
in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To
use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before
the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need
"munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different
MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing
with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have
been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local
documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail
reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version
of the
Internet-Draft.
