Google Won Two Patents Today — 7,031,961 & 7,031,954
It was just less than a week ago, that Google were granted a patent for voice interface for a search engine, and today they've awarded the patents for Document retrieval system with access control (Patent# 7,031,954) and System and method for searching and recommending objects from a categorically organized information repository (Patent# 7,031,961).
The patent, Document retrieval system with access control which was filed 9 years ago, has got me thinking about Writely, that somehow does go with reverts and rollbacks now, doesn't it? As for the second patent, System and method for searching and recommending objects from a categorically organized information repository, looks to me as though it could be a reference to a combination of Google's services like Orkut, Google Groups, Blogspot, GCal or even Personalized Search.
Screenshots of Google Calendar on Opera Web Browser
Well since I had previously seen that Google were trying to get GCal working on non-Firefox or Internet Explorer browsers, such as Opera, Safari and Konqueror, I decided to do some experimenting with GCal on Opera 8.5 and believe me it did work at the start but then GCal broke and stopped working. Anyways, here are some of the screenshots, please click on them too see enlarged versions:
The above screen was the dialog that resulted from the code execution where GCal allowed one to see the compatible browsers on the overview page, but gave you the option of continuing to browse in case you weren't on firefox or internet explorer.
This screen below, is the starting point of the calendar, looked fine to me and the 'manage calendars' link did sorta' spill into the 'search public calendars' box, but it didn't bother me much, plus I could see my events on the grid, so I was happy:
Googler Sheds Some Light on GCal's future API & Feeds
Last thursday, John Panzer at AOL and a member of the IMC (Internet Mail Consoritum) mailing list, emailed one of GCal's developers, Kyle Marvin, who's also on the IMC List the following:
"Google Calendar has launched (and there was much rejoicing). It uses Atom feeds for public calendar information. I'm wondering if these have been documented somewhere".
To which Kyle responded by saying that:
"The extensions used in the Calendar feed will definitely be documented and those docs should be available soon. The Calendar Data API support (these feeds plus the ability to programmatically create, query, edit, and delete Calendar events)
isn't officially launched yet… the release is going to be slightly staggered from the main Calendar Web UI launch that happened today.
The best place to look for API info once it is available (and to send any feedback about it) will be in the Google Calendar Data API Group that has been set up for this purpose. More announcements will be made there (soon) once the full API launch happens".
PaloAlto's Dev Team Gifted a Google AdWords Fridge
Yesterday the dev team at Palo Alto Software received a nifty yet sweet gift from their friends over at Google on reaching their millionth PPC lead through AdWords. It seems like the fridge courtesy of Google AdWordsis being looked at as more than just a fridge. In a special blog opened just for the Google Fridge (a.k.a The Cooler) by the coders at Palo Alto Software, a team member writes:
"Actually it's quite an honor to receive this newest addition to our development team. We were so excited about our new team member, we decided to dedicate this blog to the Google Fridge, so you all can enjoy in his journey with us here on our team.
Please be advised, this will be an unedited look into the highs and lows of the Google Fridge as he joins us on our daily adventures here at Palo Alto. No holds barred… he seems pretty strong willed but should prove to be a valuable asset to the team!"
Personally I've never seen any Google branded fridges, so I think this must be a first from the guys at Mountain View! Even Google's Store doesn't have any fridges on sale, but hopefully they'll be added soon to their product range so we can order a couple and also take advantage of their special offer on free shipping via UPS 🙂

Ancestral Health Symposium Coming to Boulder, CO in 2016
It was just announced that the 2016 Ancestral Health Symposium will take place August 11-13 in Boulder, Colorado. Registration begins in two days, October 15.
AHS is sort of the more serious and scientific cousin to the larger Paleo f(x) conference. They see "health from an evolutionary perspective to develop solutions to our health challenges".
I was at the AHS-conference in 2011, -12 and -13 and enjoyed it a lot. I missed the 2014 conference due to the birth of my second daughter, and unfortunately the organizers cancelled the 2015 conference. But I hope the 2016 one will be great again and I'm marking the date in my calendar. Are you coming too?

text: PHILADELPHIA -- Leila Varella's son Darius, 9, no longer munches tuna sandwiches for lunch. His mother now regrets the slabs of shark she tossed onto the grill. Two years ago, amid national concern about mercury in seafood, they plucked strands of hair to be tested in a national survey of mercury levels in the U.S. population by the environmental group Greenpeace. Darius' level was slightly high, so Varella nixed the fish. "Mercury," Varella said, "is not something he needs." It's not something anyone needs. It can interfere with fetal brain development. At high enough levels, it can cause other health problems in children and adults. As evidence of its harm mounts, regulators and public-health officials have sought stricter controls, especially on the biggest source: coal-fired power plants. Mercury is everywhere. Part of the Earth's crust, it is emitted naturally in volcanic eruptions. But humans are adding far more. About 100 manufacturing processes use and emit some form of mercury -- notably from coal-fired power plants -- which then falls to the ground and is transformed by microbes in streams and lakes into the more toxic methylmercury. Little fish eat it, big fish eat them, and the concentration grows with each gulp. Then people eat the big fish. About 60 unsuspecting children in New Jersey got an extra portion when they attended the Kiddie Kollege day-care center in Franklin Township N.J., which later was discovered to have once been a thermometer factory. Tests showed the air inside had elevated mercury levels, as did a third of the children, who now require monitoring. "The reality is that mercury is a ubiquitous environmental toxin and a significant public-health threat," said Leonardo Trasande of the Mount Sinai Center for Children's Health and the Environment in New York. While exposure to mercury vapor can be harmful, the cases are isolated, often the result of a child filching some from a school chemistry lab and playing with the silvery substance. By far, the most common exposure in North America is to methylmercury through the consumption of fish. The substance enters the bloodstream. In a pregnant woman, it crosses the placenta to her fetus and makes a beeline for the brain, where it can prevent neurons from forming connections. Once that occurs, "you can't press rewind," Trasande said. "You've lost your chance." Trasande has concluded that among the roughly 4 million children born in the United States each year, 300,000 to 600,000 are likely to have reduced IQs -- anywhere from a smidgen to as much as 24 points, making some children mentally retarded -- because of methylmercury toxicity. Methylmercury in fish has not been considered much of a risk for most adults. But new research suggests that it could increase the risk of cardiovascular disease for men. Some studies have shown that prolonged exposure to high levels of methylmercury can harm the heart, kidneys and immune system. Based on a study of fish- eating populations in some Pacific islands, the Environmental Protection Agency has set a methylmercury "reference dose" that is used in policymaking. But "the question is, is there a lower limit of mercury that is safe?" said Kevin Osterhoudt, medical director of the Poison Control Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "That requires more research." About 6 percent of women of childbearing age have methylmercury levels near the reference dose, putting their unborn children at risk for neurological damage, concluded the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2005. The EPA, in a mercury "road map" released in July, estimated 83 percent of the mercury deposited in the United States originated from other countries, blowing here on the prevailing winds. Earlier this month, more than 1,000 scientists concluded at an international mercury conference in Wisconsin that reductions in U.S. emissions were being offset by increases abroad. "There's a big concern about industrialization in China," said James Hurley of the University of Wisconsin, co-chair of the conference. Just in one province, he said, China plans to build more than 10 coal-fired plants by 2010. Although the concern has been about what happens when the emissions hit waterways and get into fish, a big question is whether breathing mercury emissions is harmful, said Ellen Silbergeld, professor of environmental health sciences at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Efforts continue to reduce mercury exposure in other ways. Newer thermometers are made with a mercury substitute. Schools are taking mercury out of chemistry labs and replacing fluorescent light fixtures because the bulbs contain mercury. A mercury preservative, thimerosol, is no longer used in childhood vaccines. Although studies have not proven a link, some people are replacing their metal dental fillings, which contain about 50 percent mercury. Meanwhile, the reach of mercury is widening. Scientists are finding it in endangered Florida panthers, Arctic reindeer and forest songbirds, and they believe it could lead to population declines of wildlife. A University of California researcher has found escalating levels in San Francisco Bay from an unexpected source -- the gold rush of the late 1800s. Mercury was used to extract the gold, and it's still rinsing downstream. Once toxic metals such as mercury get out, "it's very, very hard to put them back in," Silbergeld said. "They really are the genies that get out of the bottle."

It's been three days and I still don't know how to write this blog post.
Let's just start. Okay? Okay.
I love going to concerts. But here's something you probably don't know about shows in Nashville- the crowd is snobby. Because, you know, 3/4 of the audience is in "the biz." The crowd crosses their arms or stands still or nods their heads. But the crowd doesn't lose their collective mind.
Until Monday.
When this happened. [Please watch. Please please watch. And no- you can not find me in the crowd, though I'm standing towards the front. Trust me, I tried.][PS- I didn't record this. Krazlilangl, whom I do not know, did. So that is not me screaming. Sounds like a crazy little angel.] [PPS- this is the final encore. Hence the reason that every band on this roster is on the stage.]
And let me tell you, I had a blast. And I have never (no not ever) seen a Nashville crowd love a show like this crowd loved this show, from start to finish.
This band is Mumford & Sons and their folk music destroyed Nashville that night, in all the right ways.
While I highly recommend their music, let me go ahead and warn you that one of the songs has the F-word in it a lot.
And it has been on my mind constantly. [Not the F-word. Sheesh.] The idea of whether or not I can blog about a band that says cuss words in one of their songs. And here is what I decided- you are old enough that you know how to read [I know this because you read my blog]. So you are old enough to make choices. And I'm telling you it is a bad choice to use the F-word or listen to songs with the F-word. But you can listen to the rest of the album.[Phew. That may be the most controversial thing I've written in a while. I am, if nothing else, polarizing with my opinions. 🙂]
I have to tell you about this band. Not because they have the greatest album ever. [But it is really good.] But I have to tell you about Mumford & Sons because I watched one of their dreams come true.
They had never played Nashville before and apparently rumors of our snobby show behavior proceeded us. But once the show started and the crowd totally embraced them in a way I've never seen us do, they were in hog heaven. And they were having more fun than we were.
And I thought about my writing friends. And I thought about my musician friends. And I thought about the first day that they became brave enough to do their art in public.
And I thought about the day, probably hundreds of days later, that your art makes people lose their minds. And how that has to be the happiest moment in your artistic career.
I loved being there with Sarah, Clare, Marisa, Lauren, and Lyndsay. Something beautiful happens when friends live those times together.
And it was the greatest concert I've ever seen because it was music and art and dreams coming true and inspiring and I am still in awe of the entire thing.
Check out Mumford & Sons …. just avoid the song Little Lion Man. 🙂
I LOVE them!! And am so jealous that you got to see them all the way over there when they are from all the way over here!
please don't go avoiding Little Lion Man completely – find the radio edit – it's such a good song!
ps. favourite song is Awake My Soul – absolute tune!
Ha – but Little Lion Man is good! So jealous you saw this show, they sold out when they came to DC verrrry fast.
i found out about them a few short weeks ago and haven't been able to stop listening! i agree with rach – awake my soul is simply incredible. for me, they've been a band whose music moves something deep inside of me. i'm so excited to be hearing about them everywhere i turn!
I knew nothing of them until Beth put one of their songs (Timshel) in the video she did about our Ethiopia trip. And now I'm addicted. In the best way possible. Scouring the interwebs for tickets to see them (since we missed even trying to get tickets) has proven fruitless. And there's something so special about seeing the first tour of a band that you know is going to make it big. Thank you SO much for sharing! Also, I'm sure my boss would like a word with you, since I've spent the last 30 minutes watching videos of Mumford and Sons concerts.
You make me laugh. I finished your library book. Loved it. Should I return it to you or the library.
the show was magical. it was the best crowd i've ever been in. you could feel the love and energy just radiating from the audience toward the guys. it was incredible! i don't know what came over nashville but it was AMAZING.
agreed. and amen.
I saw Mumford and Sons in Chicago on Halloween and I cried throughout most of the show. So so beautiful. Their performance was above and beyond anything I could have hoped for. And it sounds like Nashville exceeded that. I read all of your posts and often feel compelled to comment but today I really had to say thankyou for validating a truly amazing band.
You are living in such a fun city at such a fun time in your life. I am pushing down the envy 🙂 and just feeling SO happy for you.
Amazing show.
I put together a playlist of the show using the videos I found on youtube.
I just loaded a new music player and playlist to the blog. The Mumford tune I included is The Cave. Great minds ….
Looking forward to catching them on their next trip through the ATL.
Its funny…my friend just told me about this band this morning. I listened to their album all morning on grooveshark and when I checked your blog I had to laugh. I am a new fan- a huge fan. Love. Even the Little Lion Man song.
oh I'm so jealous! I absolutely love them.
I am a HUGE Mumford and Sons fan and was bummed their show sold out so fast. Glad you could be there though! The video is pure joy.
AWAKE MY SOUL. When I decided to move to SoCal, I spent the last hour of my drive debating on what song I wanted to be playing as I pulled up to our new apartment, and it was Awake My Soul.
My littlest pseudosister cannot talk about Mumford and Sons without pointing out the F word. I decided she would have liked your post 🙂 Except if I sent it to her, her newly-braced 13-year-old self would be like "kewl bye" haha
I am so glad you told me the whole CD was not laced with the words of the one song that is getting lots of radio/VH1 play time. I am going to have to check them out now.
hahahaha! I love your disclaimer, but I also love the song "Little Lion Man" so I am torn! 😉 Therefore I will risk MY reputation and say LISTEN TO THE ENTIRE ALBUM BECAUSE YOU WILL LOVE IT 🙂
Oh my goodness! Just saw the book covers. They look a-mazing! I can't wait until it comes out! Where can I pick up a copy when it does? 😀
That video made me cry. So beautiful.

text: New Delhi: Sunita Kejriwal, wife of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has taken voluntary retirement from the Indian Revenue Service (IRS). Posted as Commissioner of IT in the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) here, she had sought VRS earlier this year. An official order in this connection has been issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) on Tuesday. According to the order, her VRS would be effective from July 15. "Upon considering her notice for voluntary retirement from government service, the president of India is pleased to allow Sunita Kejriwal to retire from government service with effect from July 15," said the order. The order further said that she will have to "seek prior permission from the government if she wishes to take commercial employment with in one year of her retirement". She has served over 20 years in the central government so she will be able to enjoy her pension benefits, a government official said. Sources in the government said that she must have taken VRS fearing her victimisation in the central government. Sunita has qualified the civil services in 1994 and joined the revenue services in 1995. Kejriwal had also taken retirement from the service after a brief stint as an IRS officer.

It's hard being a new mom (or even an experienced mom to a new baby) and sometimes we do things we know we shouldn't, despite what all the experts say. But this is a safe place to share your secrets (PM me)—we'll never tell.
This Week's Secret:
Ever since my son was born two months ago, my in-laws are around ALL of the time. My parents live in New York (we are in Tennessee) and have only visited us once, but his parents are here at least every other day for hours. His mother has strong opinions about everything I do and his father is even worse. He doesn't respect our house shoe policy (we like them off) and puts his shoe-clad feet all over our coffee table and couch, making more dirt for me to clean up. They don't help with the baby and just seem to want to fawn on him more than actually help take care of him. I feel guilty, but am going insane. -- Anonymous
Question: Have you ever postponed cleaning a mess until morning?
Other. Please explain below.

Many, many new moms have been right where you are now. It's not easy.
The best thing to do is work out an arrangement with your spouse so he is the one telling them to back off rather than you. But someone needs to.
As new parents, you do need your personal space to be able to bond and be alone together. The rules of your house ought to be respected even if your father-in-law doesn't like them.
It sounds like things are out of hand and you need to have a serious talk with the hubs.
Do you have any advice for this mom?

In the early evening of August 21, 2015, the world watched in stunned silence as the media reported a thwarted terrorist attack on Thalys train #9364 bound for Paris–an attempt prevented by three courageous young Americans traveling through Europe. The film follows the course of the friends' lives, from the struggles of childhood through finding their footing in life, to the series of unlikely events leading up to the attack. Throughout the harrowing ordeal, their friendship never wavers, making it their greatest weapon and allowing them to save the lives of the more than 500 passengers on board.

I am currently working on a new website for my company. As we are based in China, we need multi language support. I was working with qtranslate in the first design phase. It works, but is not really beautiful or comfortable to use.
I saw that since 1.2 Kriesi added support for WPML to the theme. Does that completely work not only with page/post content, but also Widget titles, Menu-Items, text I add in the Footer-Section, etc? Are you aware of anybody who used the WPML support on Kriesi's themes that I can contact and ask about his/her experience?
WPML isn't very user friendly when it comes to widgets. That's not a drawback which is theme related but a WPML issue. The author's of WPML created a tutorial here: http://wpml.org/2011/03/ (Purchase code hidden if logged out) -language/
Posts, pages and menus work great for me (you need to add a new menu and change the translation settings for it). I have problems with the portfolio(s) though. I'll ask Kriesi what's the best way to add translated portfolio entries :)
Thanks for the reply. Do you have a page online that uses a Kriesi plugin and WPML?
Yeah – just click on my username ;-)
Just a side note: The images can be set changed for every language – I was just too lazy to translate & upload them for the german pages. Some entries are only available in English, the portfolio pages in display "Es konnte leider nichts gefunden werden" when you select "German" because the portfolio doesn't translate correct for me at the moment.
The topic 'WPML Support' is closed to new replies.

In MOSS site, if we click on MyLinks, it shows model pop(Dropdown). My requirement is to provide on one ASP.NET drodowm control and on click on that, the same window should open which comes if you click on MyLinks link.
How to achieve this? Please suggest
View Complete Post
I have 7 site collections containing a few hundred team collaboration sites. Some users are internal (intranet) but most are external (extranet). Extranet users are experiencing problems with losing links to their sites and forgetting which URLs to
use. So I would like to create a single entry page that all users can enter after the logon process, which shows a list of sites they have permission to access, and other user-specific information. Perhaps relevant documents, tasks, recently modified documents
I know this sounds like a 'My Site' but we want to use use a general welcome page instead. We use Windows authentication.
What is the best way of doing this and is it something that can be done in SharePoing Designer or does it need to be done in Visual Studio?
Many thanks in advance.
I would like to develop a custom web part to display news which is ahving similar functionality to below link http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/tech/techhome/5880659.cms
My requirement is as follows
The News web part should contain a graphic, article headline and a story introduction with a link to the entire story. This should contain links to view other articles.
The graphic and highlighted article will automatically rotate among a set number of stories.
I would like to know which approach would be the best to show breaking news which will craws horizontally in MOSS site
I would like to know how to use Google calendar or similar type of calendar web part on MOSS site.

Would a Democrat-controlled Virginia legislature better suit Gov. Bob McDonnell's ambitions for national office?
McDonnell has been a highly talked about vice-presidential possibility, putting the national spotlight on the state.
But, the Washington Examiner points out that during the last few months McDonnell has scrambled to distance himself from the social conservatives of the state GOP, who have forced him to deal with controversial issues like abortion and voter ID bills.
The latest rejection of an openly gay judicial nominee is just another example of conservatives putting the governor in a thorny situation.
VIA Examiner:
This week, General Assembly Republicans defeated many of McDonnell's budget amendments and scolded him for meddling with a spending plan lawmakers had crafted. They then recaptured national attention by rejecting a gay judicial nomination, Tracy Thorne-Begland, forcing McDonnell to denounce it as "disappointing and unacceptable" without appearing to support gay rights.
Democrats were gleeful at McDonnell's discomfort.
"The diversion and fascination with offensive and divisive social issues were devastating to McDonnell's national ambitions, and they did not serve the best interest of Virginians," said state Democratic Party Chairman Brian Moran.
Like the ultrasound bill, the latest incident with the gay judge has generated national attention, including articles in The New York Times, Talking Points Memo, Slate and more. On Tuesday, Slate referred to the rejection of the judicial nomination as "another Virginia disgrace."
"As was the case with the ultrasound bill, Virginia Gov. Robert F. McDonnell tried to tamp down the bigotry on display in the House by pointing out several hours before the vote that a judicial nominee's sexual orientation should simply not be an issue in a state that claims not to discriminate. In a statement, his spokesman said, "The Governor believes candidates for judicial vacancies must be considered based solely on their merit, record, aptitude and skill. No other factors should ever be considered and the Governor has long made clear that discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation is not acceptable in state government. " It fell on deaf ears in a state that apparently believes sexual orientation is in fact the best reason to discriminate."
Speaking of national ambitions, some speculate that the recent income tax hike in Maryland could come back to haunt Gov. Martin O'Malley if he decides to run for national office.
The Baltimore Sun reports that the decisively blue state of Maryland has not punished O'Malley at the ballot for his tax raising ways, but the national electorate may not be so kind.
These questions over his political viability on the national stage continue to fuel the buzz that O'Malley could run for president in 2016.
VIA Sun:
"Already, some nationally prominent conservatives are using the session to take aim at O'Malley. They say his record on revenues cuts hard against anti-tax currents that have run strong in national politics since at least the 1980s.
But liberal opinion-makers, who would be key in a Democratic primary, are cheering. They believe the anti-tax wave is cresting, and national leaders will have to consider increasing revenues in order to balance budgets.
"This puts Maryland ahead of where most states are," O'Malley told reporters Wednesday after the House approved the tax package. "There are many states that are not able, politically, to apply a balanced approach."
"I don't look at it as a spectrum from right to left, I look at it as a direction forward or backward."
These latest tax hikes give Maryland's top earners the seventh highest income tax rate in the country.
O'Malley's income tax increase targets earners who make more than $100,000 and couples who earn more than $150,000—a much lower bar than the $250,000 minimum endorsed by President Obama and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, according to The Sun.
National anti-tax leader Grover Norquist called O'Malley "Obama 2.0," and said the governor was positioning himself "significantly" to the left of the president.
"He is running as your classic tax-and-spend guy," Norquist, the founder of Americans for Tax Reform, told The Baltimore Sun this week. "If he thinks the country wants that in four years it is a smart move."
* Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli says the state received $115,000 from a multistate settlement with Sketchers that claimed the shoe company made unfounded claims in ads for its Shape-ups, Tone-Ups and Sketchers Resistance Runner athletic shoes.
Specifically, according to The AP, Cuccinelli said the ads claimed the shoes would help people lose weight and strengthen their muscles.
Although the company denied the allegations, it paid 44 states a total of $5 million.
* Virginia state revenue collections increased 10.6 percent in April over the same month in 2011 largely due to strong individual non-withholding receipts, according to The Richmond Times-Dispatch.
On a year-to-date basis, total revenue collections rose 5.9 percent through April, ahead of the annual forecast of 4.6 percent growth, according to Secretary of Finance Richard "Ric" Brown.
* The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (MWAA) postponed a vote to remove a union-friendly incentive for contractors bidding to build the second phase of Metro's Silver Line extension to Dulles International Airport, according to The Washington Post.
The board said it would call a special session by June 6 to rule on the 10 percent bonus it included in the project labor agreement for the construction of the rail.
Gov. McDonnell has said if the incentive remains, he will withhold the state's contribution of $150 million to the project.
* The MWAA is now on the defense after a report from federal investigators found widespread ethics and contract oversight problems with the organization.
A day after federal investigators reported that the authority played fast and loose with already lax ethics standards -- racking up expenses like the $4,800 spent on three dinners in Hawaii -- MWAA officials insisted they were doing a good job overseeing the region's airports and building Metro's Silver Line.
"I take these issues very seriously," said authority Chairman Michael Curto, who was reprimanded, though not mentioned by name, by the federal investigators for recommending his wife's law firm for a no-bid contract worth $100,000. Curto denies he made the recommendation. "The [federal] report tell us we have more to do to get to the level we all want, and that's exactly how we're going to proceed. ... It is my hope and expectation that we'll be able to address most, if not all, of the issues by the time the final report is released later this summer."

Introduction to the STD Notes (RFC1311)
Original Publication Date: 1992-Mar-01

Internet Society Requests For Comment (RFCs)

Request for Comments: 1311 J. Postel, Editor
March 1992
Introduction to the STD Notes
Status of this Memo
This RFC describes a new sub-series of RFCs, called STDs (Standards).
Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
1. Introduction
The STDs are a subseries of notes within the RFC series that are the
Internet standards. The intent is to identify clearly for the
Internet community those RFCs which document Internet standards.
2. The Assignment of STD Numbers
There is a need to be very clear about which specifications have
completed the full process of standardization in the Internet. To do
this an STD number will be assigned to a specification when it
reaches the Standard maturity level. Note that specifications may be
either Technical Specifications (TS) or Applicability Statements
When a specification reaches the final stage of the standardization
process and the IAB has designated it a standard for the Internet, an
STD number will be assigned to that specification.
The existing standards have been assigned STD numbers (see Appendix).
The standard for a particular protocol will always have the same STD
If at some future time a protocol is reworked and a new document
is produced as the specification of that standard and the new
specification is designated by the IAB as a standard for the
Internet, then the new document will be labeled with the same STD
number (of course, that new document will have a new RFC number).
Multiple Documents for One Standard:
A STD number identifies a standard not a document. A document is
identified by its RFC number. If the specification of a standard
is spread over several documents they will each carry the same STD
For example, the Domain Name System (DNS) is currently
specified by the combination of RFCs 1034 and 1035. Both of
these documents are now labeled STD-13.
To be completely clear the DNS "Concepts and Facilities"
document can be referenced as "STD-13/RFC-1034".
In such cases, whenever possible, the set of documents defining a
particular standard will cross reference each other.
One Standard or Multiple Standards:
One difficult decision is deciding whether a set of documents
describe one standard or multiple standards. In the Appendix, one
can see that there are several cases in which one STD applies to
