FW: I-D ACTION:draft-daigle-napstr-01.txt

FYI

I know this is a little late (published 3.5 months ago) but I only just
realized the relevance to the WebDAV-server-discovery emails (e.g. the
suggestion of using appletalk I think) on the list a couple weeks ago.

This memo defines a Dynamic Delegation Discovery System (DDDS) [3]
Application for domain name based discovery of application services.
Essentially, this uses DNS NAPTR resource records [4] to provide one
more layer of redirection for service lookup than is feasible with
SRV ([2]) records.  It is proposed because real-life use is
demonstrating a need for something slightly more substantial than
SRV, and alternatively SRV usage may become twisted out of its
intended shape.

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.
