     HTTP Cache-Control Extensions for Stale Content
     
     draft-nottingham-http-stale-controls-00.txt
     Date: 28/11/2008
     Authors: Mark Nottingham
     Working Group: Individual Submissions (none)
     Formats: txt xml
    This document defines two independent HTTP Cache-Control extensions that allow control over the use of stale responses by caches.

     Using OpenPGP Keys for Transport Layer Security (TLS) Authentication
     
     draft-mavrogiannopoulos-rfc5081bis-03.txt
     Date: 25/11/2008
     Authors: Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos
     Working Group: Individual Submissions (none)
     Formats: txt xml
    This memo proposes extensions to the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol to support the OpenPGP key format. The extensions discussed here include a certificate type negotiation mechanism, and the required modifications to the TLS Handshake Protocol. This memo replaces the Experimental [RFC5081].

     Test vectors for STUN
     
     draft-ietf-behave-stun-test-vectors-04.txt
     Date: 18/11/2008
     Authors: Remi Denis-Courmont
     Working Group: Behavior Engineering for Hindrance Avoidance (behave)
     Formats: txt xml
    The Session Traversal Utilities for NAT (STUN) protocol defines several STUN attributes. The content of some of these -- FINGERPRINT, MESSAGE-INTEGRITY and XOR-MAPPED-ADDRESS -- involve binary-logical operations (hashing, xor). This document provides test vectors for those attributes.

     Requirements for Replacing AppleTalk
     
     draft-cheshire-dnsext-nbp-07.txt
     Date: 17/11/2008
     Authors: Stuart Cheshire, Marc Krochmal
     Working Group: Individual Submissions (none)
     Formats: txt
    One of the goals of the authors of Multicast DNS (mDNS) and DNS-Based Service Discovery (DNS-SD) was the desire to retire AppleTalk and the AppleTalk Name Binding Protocol, and to replace them with an IP-based solution. This document presents a brief overview of the capabilities of AppleTalk NBP, and outlines the properties required of an IP-based replacement.
     DNS Blacklists and Whitelists
     
     draft-irtf-asrg-dnsbl-08.txt
     Date: 17/11/2008
     Authors: John Levine
     Working Group: Individual Submissions (none)
     Formats: txt xml
    The rise of spam and other anti-social behavior on the Internet has led to the creation of shared blacklists and whitelists of IP addresses or domains. The DNS has become the de-facto standard method of distributing these blacklists and whitelists. This memo documents the structure and usage of DNS based blacklists and whitelists, and the protocol used to query them. IRTF Notice This document is a product of the Anti-Spam Research Group (ASRG) of the Internet Research Task Force. It represents the consensus of the ASRG with respect to practices to improve interoperability of DNS based blacklists and whitelists, but does not constitute an IETF or Internet standard. [NOTE TO RFC EDITOR: Please remove this paragraph in publication.] Comments and discussion may be directed to the ASRG mailing list, asrg@irtf.org.

     NAT/Firewall NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NSLP)
     
     draft-ietf-nsis-nslp-natfw-20.txt
     Date: 03/11/2008
     Authors: Martin Stiemerling, Hannes Tschofenig, Cedric Aoun, Elwyn Davies
     Working Group: Next Steps in Signaling (nsis)
     Formats: txt
    This memo defines the NSIS Signaling Layer Protocol (NSLP) for Network Address Translators (NATs) and firewalls. This NSLP allows hosts to signal on the data path for NATs and firewalls to be configured according to the needs of the application data flows. For instance, it enables hosts behind NATs to obtain a public reachable address and hosts behind firewalls to receive data traffic. The overall architecture is given by the framework and requirements defined by the Next Steps in Signaling (NSIS) working group. The network scenarios, the protocol itself, and examples for path-coupled signaling are given in this memo.

     DSCP for Capacity-Admitted Traffic
     
     draft-ietf-tsvwg-admitted-realtime-dscp-05.txt
     Date: 02/11/2008
     Authors: Fred Baker, James Polk, Martin Dolly
     Working Group: Transport Area Working Group (tsvwg)
     Formats: txt xml
    This document requests one Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) from the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) for real-time traffic classes similar to voice conforming to the Expedited Forwarding Per Hop Behavior, and admitted using a call admission procedure involving authentication, authorization, and capacity admission. This document also recommends that certain classes of video traffic described in RFC 4594 and which have similar requirements be changed to require admission using a Call Admission Control (CAC) procedure involving authentication, authorization, and capacity admission.
