CURRENT_MEETING_REPORT_
Reported by John Veizades/Apple
Resource Location BOF Minutes
At the Boulder IETF meeting a group got together for an informal Birds
of a Feather session to discuss the issue of finding resources in an
internetworked environment. John Veizades from Apple and Steve Deering
from Xerox lead the meeting.
The meeting included a presentation of work in progress at the
University of Colorado, Boulder. Michael Schwartz presented work he has
done on the location of personal information in an interneted
environment. Paper describing his work can be found on
latour.colorado.edu in the directory /pub/RD.Papers/.
Ralph Droms talked about his work on the Knowbot services.
John Veizades gave a description of two protocols that are used for the
finding of arbitrary services in an interneted environment:
o Name Binding Protocol used by the AppleTalk protocol family to find
services.
o Network Binding Protocol which is part of the Xerox Network System
(XNS) protocol family.
The group came to the conclusion that a Working Group should be formed
to look into resource and service location metaphors.
Although the Chair is still to be determined, an interest list will be
formed and an announcement of the interest list and the Working Group
Charter is forthcoming.
