        Title           : Common Profile: Instant Messaging
        Author(s)       : D. Crocker, J. Peterson

Instant messaging is defined in RFC2778 [5].  Today, numerous instant
messaging protocols are in use, and little interoperability between
services based on these protocols has been achieved.  This
specification defines common semantics and data formats for instant
messaging to facilitate the creation of gateways between instant
messaging services.

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.
