RFC 30

Network Working Group RFC-30 ✨

DOCUMENTATION CONVENTIONS 💖

Okay bestie, here's the lowdown. This is RFC-30 from the Network Working Group, written by S. Crocker at UCLA and dated 4 February 70 🎀. It's a revision of NWG/RFC 10, 16, 24, and 27, which is giving "ongoing glow-up" 🦋. The original doesn't list a category, so I'm not making one up 💅.

CONTENT 🌸

Literally anything related to the HOST software or any other part of the network can be a NWG note 🧚. Notes are encouraged to be timely rather than polished, so don't stress about making it perfect 🫶. Philosophical positions with no examples, specific suggestions or implementation techniques with no background explanation, and explicit questions with no attempted answers are all acceptable 💜. The minimum length for a NWG note is one sentence 🙈.

These standards (or lack of them) are stated out loud for two reasons ✨. First, people tend to treat anything written down as automatically authoritative, and we want to encourage swapping and discussing ideas that are way less than authoritative 🔥. Second, there's a natural hesitation to publish something unpolished, and we want to help you get past that 💅.

FORM 🎀

Every NWG note should have the following information 💖:

1. "Network Working Group" "Request for Comments: X" (X underscored) 🌈 where X is a serial number. Serial numbers are assigned by Steve Crocker at UCLA.
2. Author and affiliation 🦋
3. Date ⭐
4. Title 🍓 The title doesn't need to be unique, so no pressure 😭.

DISTRIBUTION 🌈

One copy only will be sent from the author's site to:

1. Abhai Bhushan, MIT 💜
2. Steve Carr, Utah 🌸
3. Gerry Cole, SDC 🫶
4. Steve Crocker, UCLA 👑
5. Bill English, SRI 🦋
6. Jim Fry, MITRE 🧚
7. Nico Haberman, Carnegie-Mellon 🔥
8. John Heafner, RAND ✨
9. Bob Kahn, BB&N 🍓
10. Thomas O'Sullivan, Raytheon 💅
11. Larry Roberts, ARPA 💖
12. Paul Rovner, LL 🙈
13. Robert Sproull, Stanford 🌈
14. Ron Stoughton, UCSB ⭐

Reproduction, if desired, may be handled locally 💜.
