URL:http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5587.txt

This document introduces new application programming interfaces
(APIs) to the Generic Security Services API (GSS-API) for extended
mechanism attribute inquiry.  These interfaces are primarily intended
to reduce instances of hardcoding of mechanism identifiers in GSS
applications.

These interfaces include mechanism attributes and attribute sets, a
function for inquiring the attributes of a mechanism, a function for
indicating mechanisms that possess given attributes, and a function
for displaying mechanism attributes.  [STANDARDS TRACK]

This document is a product of the Kitten (GSS-API Next Generation) Working 
Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track
protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Internet
Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and
status of this protocol.  Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

RFC 5594 on Report from the IETF Workshop on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Infrastructure, May 28, 2008

Title:  Report from the IETF Workshop

URL:http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5594.txt

This document reports the outcome of a workshop organized by the
Real-time Applications and Infrastructure Area Directors of the IETF
to discuss network delay and congestion issues resulting from
increased Peer-to-Peer (P2P) traffic volumes.  The workshop was held
on May 28, 2008 at MIT in Cambridge, MA, USA.  The goals of the
workshop were twofold: to understand the technical problems that ISPs
and end users are experiencing as a result of high volumes of P2P
traffic, and to begin to understand how the IETF may be helpful in
addressing these problems.  Gaining an understanding of where in the
IETF this work might be pursued and how to extract feasible work
items were highlighted as important tasks in pursuit of the latter
goal.  The workshop was very well attended and produced several work
items that have since been taken up by members of the IETF community.
