International Emergency Preference Scheme (IEPS)
Greetings, I have just posted the Internet Draft draft-itu-t-ieps-description-00.txt, which contains the text of ITU-T Recommendation E.106, Description of the International Emergency Preference Scheme (IEPS). It provides further background information on IEPS for the initiative being taken to accommodate provisions for emergency communications in next generation networks based upon Internet technology. We first presented the IEPS requirements at a BOF at IETF 48 in Pittsburgh during July 2000 with an overview in Internet Draft draft.folts.ohno.ieps.considerations.00.txt. Although ITU-T E.106 addresses emergency communications in the public switched telephone networks and ISDN, we are projecting these requirements into the future for public IP-telephony services and other innovative Internet-based services that are becoming available in the telecommunications marketplace. You are invited to visit our web site: www.iepscheme.net. There are several other background documents available there including the recent Internet Draft draft-carlberg-ieps-framework-00.txt, which provides more detailed technical considerations as well as some pointers to IETF work areas where there could be specific issues related to provision of emergency communications. You are also encouraged to subscribe to the IEPS mail list to participate in discussions on these issues. You can subscribe by following the procedures outlined in the IEPS web site. We would like to be able to hold another BOF on IEPS at IETF 50 next month. We would also like to see and IEPS Working Group established in the IETF to facilitate the work. Your comments or views to the IEPS list would be most welcome. It would be very helpful to have discussions on the IEPS issues. Your input and support for this work would be very much appreciated.

Re: Multicast File Distribution protocols?
Starburst published an ID a long time ago which I remember reading. But, I don't think it became an RFC and I don't have a pointer to it (and the ID has long since expired). (I might be wrong about the RFC. It is worth checking.) Are you looking for specific product information or ideas on the concept in general? My company makes a satellite based product called Package Delivery which you should be able to get info about from our web site (www.hns.com). For general information, the Reliable Multicast Transport (http://www.ietf.org/html.charters/rmt-charter.html) working group is currently working on standardizing reliable multicast file transport protocols.

Writing Internet Drafts on a Macintosh
I am trying (trying is the key word) to write Internet drafts on a powerbook using MS Word with the template from the IETF web-site, then using a PC to convert Word to text per the instructions. Is there a better way to write IDs on a Mac? Also, why isn't HTML an accepted format for Internet Drafts, pretty much everyone on the planet should be able to read an HTML file (even using Lynx on a terminal)? Regards, Bora Akyol
