  The RIPE database specifications [2] and RPSL language [1] define
  languages used as the basis for representing information in a routing
  policy system.  A repository for routing policy system information is
  known as a routing registry.  A routing registry provides a means of
  exchanging information needed to address many issues on importance to
  the operation of the Internet.  The implementation and deployment of a
  routing policy system must maintain some degree of integrity to be of
  any operational use.  This document addresses the need to assure
  integrity of the data by providing an authentication and authorization
  model.

Send a message to:	mailserv at ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-rps-auth-01.txt".
	
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.
