+                     Belated Network Meeting Report
+
+On 8 May 1970, a Network Working Group meeting was hosted at Lincoln Labs.
+The topics under discussion were:
+
+   1)   Lincoln Lab's Local Interaction Language (LIL)
+
+   2)   Records, Messages, and Format in HOST-HOST information exchange.
+
+   3)   Miscellaneous gripes
+
+The first topic is thoroughly summarized in Lincoln Lab's Semi annual
+Technical Summary titled "Graphics", dated May 31, 1970 (document id.
+ESD-TR-70-151).
+
+The second topic involved considerable  discussion of NWG/RFC #42 in which
+it was proposed that all messages be preceded by an 8-bit type byte which
+would declare the format of the message which followed.
+
+The following decisions were reached:
+
+   a)   Records may begin anywhere within a message.
+
+   b)   The first 8 bits of a record are reserved for type information.
+
+   c)   The first transmission on a connection starts a record.
+
+Type 0 is agreed to mean that the transmission that follows consists of an
+arbitrarily long record, and that no further type bytes will be present.
+
+The notions of messages and records are independent of the flow-control
+protocol.  Thus the receipt of a message does not carry any semantic
+importance.  The receipt of a record, however, may initiate some interpre-
+tation process.
+
+After some discussion, the proposals in NWG/RFC #42 were permuted as follows:
+
+   type 0 = bit string of arbitrary length follows
+
+   type 1 = 8-bit ASCII follows
+
+   type 2 = EBCDIC follows
+
+   type 3 = MOD 33 TTY 7-bit ASCII
+
+
+
+
+                                                                [Page 1]

+
+
+   type 4 = YOUR Local
+            followed by another type byte
+
+   type 5 = MY Local
+            followed by another type byte
+
+The praise or blame for the preceding decisions rests on the attendees at
+the meeting, to wit:

+D. B. Black (Harvard)
+Jack Bouknight (UI)
+Howard Brodie (MAC)
+Vint Cerf (UCLA)
+Steve Crocker (UCLA)
+Jim Curry (UTAH)
+A. Evans (LL, MAC)
+Robert Flegal (UTAH)
+Jim Frogie (LL)
+J. D. Fry (MITRE)
+John Heafner (RAND)
+Bob Hoffman (RAND)
+Richard Kalin (LL)
+William Kantrowitz (LL)
+Peggy Karp (MITRE)
+Abe Landsberg (SDC)
+Robert Long (SDC)

+
+Instead of sending NWG/RFC's to Chuck Rose at Case University, Jim Torson
+will be receiving them.
