--- F R E N D Z of martian --- ----- Forwarded message from Magnus Bodin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- This years april-fool-RFC:s. Pi Digit Generation Protocol http://rfc3091.x42.com/ This protocol is intended to provide the Pi digit generation service (PIgen), and be used between clients and servers on host computers. Typically the clients are on workstation hosts lacking local Pi support, and the servers are more capable machines with greater Pi calculation capabilities. The essential tradeoff is the use of network resources and time instead of local computational cycles. Etymology of "Foo" http://rfc3092.x42.com/ Approximately 212 RFCs so far, starting with RFC 269, contain the terms oo', ar', or oobar' as metasyntactic variables without any proper explanation or definition. This document rectifies that deficiency. /magnus -- http://x42.com/ ----- End forwarded message ----- -- Sent to you via the frendz list at marsbard.com The archive is at http://www.mail-archive.com/frendz@marsbard.com/
