QUAIL - Presented by Gary Malkin

The revamped QUAIL document was well received and will be published in
mid-August as an RFC FYI. This RFC FYI is the first in a collection of
FYI's called, ``Questions and Answers'' (Q/A) produced by the USWG. The
goal of this series is to document the most commonly asked questions and
answers in the Internet.

Future updates of this memo will be produced as USWG members become
aware of additional questions that should be included, and of
deficiencies or inaccuracies that should be amended in this document.
Additional FYI Q/A's will be published which will deal with intermediate
and advanced Q/A topics.

An installation checklist for the Internet is currently in draft stage

                                   1






and is intended to be of use to people of all levels; new, intermediate
and advanced.  It is general in nature for new and intermediate users,
yet advanced users should find it an effective compilation of important
information for the Internet community.

An outline and sketchy rough draft was presented by Bob Enger at the UBC
IETF, with discussions and suggestions for the checklist noted.  Writing
will continue and the next pass draft of the checklist will be presented
at the December IETF in Colorado.
