A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : Advancement of Application Programming Interface
specifications on the IETF Standards Track
Author(s) : B. Pawlowski et al.
Filename : draft-pawlowski-apitest-01.txt
Pages : 6

The Internet Standards Process [RFC2026] requires that all IETF
Standards Track specifications must have 'multiple, independent, and
interoperable implementations' before they can be advanced beyond
Proposed Standard status. This document specifies the test which the
IESG will use to determine if an Application Programming Interface
(API) specification document meets these requirements. It also
discusses the rationale for this process.

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.
