CPIC 2.0 Specification
             (Approval Draft - April 7, 1994)

Hello Folks.  I've just put the approval draft of the
CPIC 2.0 spec on the Internet.

This draft of the CPIC 2.0 spec contains all the information
that received approval at the March CIW.
This includes, for example, 2.0 conformance classes,
queue-level processing and multi-threading support, directory,
security (LU 6.2, OSI TP), secondary return codes, and
approved technical and editorial changes.  Revision bars are
provided.

Please review carefully and return your comments to me before
4/20/94.  The next iteration, on 4/27, is the last time the
spec will be put on the Internet before June 30 publication.

Four versions of the draft are available:

- 20spec.psbin......This is an uncompressed Postscript
                    listfile of the book.  It'll take
                    about 8 meg to download.

- cpic.exebin.......This is a compressed Postscript
                    listfile of the book.  It'll take
                    about 1.7 meg to download.  After
                    you download, type:
                         cpic
                    at your DOS command line to uncompress
                    the file.  The filename will change
                    to 20spec.psb.

- 20spec.psbin.Z....This is a UNIX-compressed
                    listfile of the book.
                    (This file will be available on 4/8/94)

- 20spec.ascii......This is a straight ASCII listing of
                    the book.  Many of the pictures and
                    tables are not readable in this
                    version, but the revision bars do
                    show up, so you can read the text.

The book is about 600 pages now, so if you have problems
receiving or printing these files, please call me (919-254-4488)
or send me a note ([email-masked]).

  Best Regards,
