	Can someone tell me what this is?  I recently had a question
	regarding this in a pros/cons relation to SQL/Database.

	What is this model/methodology?  Does it have a number?
	Is there documentation regarding this on the net?

	thanks,
	Mark Klamerus

The IEEE MSS is P1244, and will issue a new version of  their reference
model in the next several months. If you're interested in more details,
contact bbaird@nsa.hp.com (he's our standards rep). I'm not familiar with
IEEE rules on releasing their documents, but Bob Baird should be able to
point you in the right direction.

As for the reference model, its intention is to describe a model where
hosts can access tertiary storage in a uniform manner. The hope is that
multiple vendor's products will interoperate. Primary members are the
U.S. national labs, supercomputer manufacturers, and mass-storage system
hardware providers, as well as a few F100 companies.
