+Network Working Group J. Heafner
+Request for Comments: 130 Rand
+NIC 5848 22 April 1971
+
+
+ RESPONSE TO RFC #111 (PRESSURE FROM THE CHAIRMAN)
+
+ The purpose of RFC #111, as I interpret it, is two-fold: 1) To
+ establish realistic implementation schedules and to make them known
+ to the Network community so as to expedite everyone's planning of
+ productive use of Network Services. 2) To uncover implementation
+ techniques and strategies that were most successful and might be
+ useful in future implementations.
+
+ RFC #111 asks for implementation schedules. I have not "prodded"
+ host teams yet because an integral part of those schedules includes
+ TELNET for which no specification is known to everyone. Tom
+ O'Sullivan, Raytheon (TELNET Chairman) and John Melvin, SRI (TELNET
+ Committee Member) advise me that a TELNET RFC will be generated soon.
+ I will subsequently contact site liaisons concerning a schedule.
+
+ I will talk with Alex McKenzie, BBN about the form of publication of
+ these schedules. Alex and I agree that they should be published as
+ an RFC updating NIC Memo #5767 (ARPA Network Site Status). I will
+ collect and compile the information via phone, mail or NIC and send
+ it to Alex for technical editing and subsequent NIC RFC publication.
+
+ Alex informed me that the forthcoming Resource Notebook (see NIC
+ #5760) includes much of the information on use of services, obtaining
+ job numbers, etc. RFC #111 schedules will be an update of NIC #5767
+ and may reference, but will not duplicate, the Resource Notebook.
+
+ One begins to wonder why I'm in this loop since Alex has the
+ responsibility to periodically update NIC #5767. The reason, as RFC
+ #111 states, is that Rand will assist in testing implementations
+ remotely. To facilitate testing, I would like first-hand information
+ on schedules and comments on how we might be of service in this
+ respect. Testing will be short-term and will not go beyond what is
+ included in RFC #111. I will contact site liaisons shortly to find
+ out if and how we can be of assistance in this capacity.
+
+ Please feel free to contact either me or Eric Harslem regarding this
+ RFC or RFC #111.
