Status of this document

	This draft document will be submitted to the RFC editor as a  
Proposed Standard protocol specificiation.  Distribution of this document  
is unlimited.

Looks like it still has a ways to go before it becomes a standard....

NewsGrazer has been the ADOPTED standard here for quite a while when it  
comes to multi-media messages.

A de-facto standard would be great... Mark would not have to drop a ton of  
MIME mail on us, (which, would have been an abuse, even if it had been a  
NewsGrazer posting)

Mark... you probably could have stripped, compressed and uuencoded your  
MIME stuff and sent it to us instead of that message.  That would have had  
about the same effect.  and may even have been constructive...
