-- --PART-BOUNDARY=.19505161204.ZM16892.west.ora.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-asciiJust announced is diff first draft-ietf-html-spec-02.txt which has me confused. I already have a doc by that name, obtained on 29 March. It doesn't look as though it came via email, so I imagine (wrongly?) that I obtained it from ds.internic.net. Is there some confusion in numbering?
Here's the top of a diff of the two:
1,4d0 < HTML Working Group T. Berners-Lee < INTERNET-DRAFT D. Connolly < <draft-ietf-html-spec-02.txt> MIT/W3C < Expires September 29, 1995 March 29, 1995 5a2,5 > HTML Working Group T. Berners-Lee > INTERNET-DRAFT MIT/W3C > <draft-ietf-html-spec-02.txt> D. Connolly > Expires: In six months May 6, 1995
The one dated March 29 is my earlier copy. Dan, can you unconfuse me?
I also note in the latest version (May 6) that the DTD has been rendered unusable by the inclusion of line numbers. I would expect this section of the spec to contain the authoritative version of the DTD, which one would extract and use. Is there some other plan for distributing the DTD?

A Revised Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the HyperText Markup Language Working Group of the IETF.
Note: This revision reflects comments received during the last call period.
Title : Hypertext Markup Language - 2.0 Author(s) : T. Berners-Lee, D. Connolly Filename : draft-ietf-html-spec-02.txt Pages : 54 Date : 05/15/1995
The Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a simple markup language used to create hypertext documents that are platform independent. HTML documents are SGML documents with generic semantics that are appropriate for representing information from a wide range of domains. HTML markup can represent hypertext news, mail, documentation, and hypermedia; menus of options; database query results; simple structured documents with in-lined graphics; and hypertext views of existing bodies of information.
HTML has been in use by the World Wide Web (WWW) global information initiative since 1990. This specification roughly corresponds to the capabilities of HTML in common use prior to June 1994. HTML is an application of ISO Standard 8879:1986 Information Processing Text and Office Systems; Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML).
The `"text/html; version=2.0"' Internet Media Type (RFC 1590) and MIME Content Type (RFC 1521) is defined by this specification.

NOTE: The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e., documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. For questions, please mail to Internet-Drafts@cnri.reston.va.us.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
