We currently maintain a similar "README" file for the SENSE documentation
on the PWG ftp server, as described in the attached message.
I really hope the PWG moves to adopt a similar document numbering
strategy in the very near future...before our document collection
becomes a veritable trash can that no one wants to browse. (When
was the last time you tried to find a document in our existing
document repository? Not a pretty sight at all.)

It would be nice if someone could maintain a list on the FTP server
correlating file name to paper content. Sort of a "readme" file. The list
Walt sent out via e-mail shows what I mean:
Filename Description of Paper
-------- --------------------
9606WJS1.pdf P1284.4 Datalink and Address Server Proposal
ieee0796.ps Raw postscript file of slide Joe and I presented at
the July meeting. Could not get this into PDF.
ieee0796.pcl PCL version of ieee0796.ps
9608WJS1.pdf P1284.4 Process Proposal
9608WJS2.pdf P1284.4 Proposal Evalution Criteria Proposal
9608WJS3.pdf P1284.4 Process Proposal and criteria presentation
