- Description of Working Group:
-
- MIME, (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) is currently a
- Proposed Standard. MIME redefines the format of message bodies to
- allow multi-part textual and non-textual message bodies to be
- represented and exchanged without loss of information. With the
- introduction of MIME as a Proposed Standard it is now possible to
- define mappings between RFC-822 content-types and X.400 body parts.
- The MIME-MHS Interworking Working Group is chartered to develop
- these mappings, providing an emphasis on both interworking between
- Internet and MHS mail environments and also on tunneling through
- these environments. These mappings will be made in the context of an
- RFC-1148bis environment.
-
- Goals and Milestones:
-
- Done Post an Internet-Draft describing MIME-MHS Interworking.
-
- Done Post an Internet-Draft describing the ``core'' set of Registered
- conversions for bodyparts.
-
- Jul 92 Submit a completed document to the IESG describing MIME-MHS
- Interworking as a Proposed Standard.
-
- Jul 92 Submit the ``core'' bodyparts document to the IESG as a Proposed
- Standard.
