Re: [Queue-developers] Internet draft published. [Was: clarification of how 1.20.1 operates]

[W. G. K. <wer...@ya...>]

An internet draft of the protocol used by GNU Queue is now available: 
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-krebs-gnuqueue-protocol-00.txt

This describes the protocol used in 1.20.1 (except that 1.20.1 still uses 
TCP/IP, so it is an "experimental implementation" of the Open GNU Queue 
protocol.)

Internet drafts are published (in an horrible ASCII format) for comments from 
the community.

Yes, this is correct. However, the var/queue can still be shared, although it is 
not recommended.
