~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BCP INDEX ------------- CREATED ON: 12/19/2001. This file contains citations for all BCPs in numeric order. The BCPs form a sub-series of the RFC document series, specifically those RFCs with the status BEST CURRENT PRACTICE. BCP citations appear in this format: #### Title of BCP. Author 1, Author 2, Author 3. Issue date. (Format: ASCII) (Obsoletes xxx) (Obsoleted by xxx) (Updates xxx) (Updated by xxx) (Also RFC####) For example: 0009 The Internet Standards Process -- Revision 3. S. Bradner. October 1996. (Format: TXT=86731 bytes) (Obsoletes RFC1602) (Also RFC2026) Key to fields: #### is the BCP number. The remainder of the fields are the same as those of the corresponding RFC, whose number is given in the final (Also RFC####) field. Following the BCP number are the title, the author(s), and the publication date of the RFC. Each of these is terminated by a period. The format and length of the RFC follow in parenthesis. One or more of the following alternative formats are listed: ASCII text (TXT), PostScript (PS), and/or Adobe (PDF). Each format is followed by an equals sign and the number of bytes for that version. For example (Format: TXT=aaaaa, PS=bbbbbb bytes) shows that the ASCII text version is aaaaa bytes, and the PostScript version of the RFC is bbbbbb bytes. Obsoletes xxxx refers to other RFCs that this one replaces; Obsoleted by xxxx refers to RFCs that have replaced this one. Updates xxxx refers to other RFCs that this one merely updates but does not replace); Updated by xxxx refers to RFCs that have updated (but not replaced) this one. Generally, only immediately succeeding and/or preceding RFCs are indicated, not the entire history of each related earlier or later RFC in a related series. BCPs and other RFCs may be obtained using HTTP, FTP, or email.
