  This document is a guide for Internet standard writers.  It defines
  those characteristics that make standards coherent, unambiguous, and
  easy to interpret.  In addition, it singles out usage believed to
  have led to unclear specifications, resulting in non-interoperable
  interpretations in the past.  These guidelines are to be used with
  RFC 2223, 'Instructions to RFC Authors.'
 
  This version of the document is a draft.

Send a message to:	mailserv at ietf.org.  In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-stdguide-ops-07.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.
