DOCUMENTATION CONVENTIONS
- This note is a revision of NWG/RFC #3
-
- The Network Working Group seems to consist of Steve Carr at Utah, Elmer
-
- Shapiro and Bill English SRI, Steve Crocker at UCLA, John Haefner at
-
- RAND, Paul Rovner and Jim Curry at Lincoln Labs. Membership is not closed.
-
- The Network Working Group (NWG) is concerned with the HOST software, the
-
- strategies for using the network, and initial experience with the network.
-
- Documentation of the NWG's effort is through notes such as this. Notes
-
- may be produced at any site by anybody and included in this series.
-
- CONTENT
-
- The content of a NWG note may be any thought, suggestion, etc. related to
-
- the HOST software or other aspect of the network. Notes are encouraged to
-
- be timely rather than polished. Philosophical positions without examples
-
- or other specifics, specific suggestions or implementation techniques
-
- without introductory or background explication, and explicit questions
-
- without any attempted answers are all acceptable. The minimum length for
-
- a NWG note is one sentence.
-
- These standards (or lack of them) are stated explicitly for two reasons.
-
- First, there is a tendency to view a written statement as ipso facto
-
- authoritative, and we hope to promote the exchange and discussion of
-
- considerably less than authoritative ideas. Second, there is a natural
-
- hesitancy to publish something unpolished, and we hope to ease this
-
- inhibition.
-
