<!-- RFC* -->
The Request for Comments documents (RFCs) are working notes of the
Internet research and development community. A document in this series
may be on essentially any topic related to computer communication, and may
be anything from a meeting report to the specification of a standard.
<P>
Most RFCs are the descriptions of network protocols or services, often
giving detailed procedures and formats for their implementation. Other
RFCs report on the results of policy studies or summarize the work of
technical committees or workshops.
<P>
Several thousand RFCs have been written since the Internet started in 1969.
Most are available online at the
