ClementsRequest for Comments: 582                                      BBN-TENEXNIC: 19962                                               5 November 1973Comments onRFC 580 -Machine Readable Protocols   I fully support the requirement for machine-readable protocol   documents.  In my situation, the line-printer is a much more reliable   device than the copying machine.   However, I object to the phrase "preferably as nls files" inRFC 580.   My objection is based on the lack of conversion mechanisms INTO NLS,   not to the retrieval process or NLS itself.   Most sites have their own text editors and RUNOFF's (or their   equivalents).  Most large protocol documents are prepared at least   partially by secretarial help.  Those persons should be able to   prepare the documents in the home machine (or wherever) in languages   with which they are familiar.  There should be a general program   (preferably clever, but at least generally available and predictable)   for converting nicely formatted text to NLS files.   Perhaps the program which receives mail for the journal will do the   trick; if so it needs further documentation beyond the mail-orientedRFC 543, and its existence and usage need to be publicised.
