FYI: APEX

These drafts concern APEX, an extensible messaging protocol which
uses BEEP as a substrate, whose first application is presence
protocols (e.g., ICQ, etc.)

APEX has some similarities to SOAP/XML Protocol, and is authored by
Marshall Rose, who wrote BEEP.

In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-mrose-apex-core-02.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.
