Folks,   

The Informative RFC on Terminology and Goals for Internet Fax (RFC 2542)
has now been published (see below).    

Thanks go to Larry Masinter and the many folks who made comments on this
document.   

FYI, the three standards track documents on extended fax have now gone
through the RFC editor and should be announced shortly.
