Many of the support functions necessary to exploit the mechanisms by
which differing levels of service can be provided are limited in
scope and a complete framework is non-existent. Various efforts at
such a framework have received a great deal of attention and
represent a historical shift in scope for many of the organizations
looking to address this problem. The purpose of this document is to
explore the problems of defining a Service management framework and
to examine some of the issues that still need to be resolved.

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.
