NSIS Framework Outline

Introduction
	Statement of Purpose

To develop the 'realms/domains' and modes of operation where an NSIS 
protocol can be used.  Identify the relationship of an NSIS protocol to other 
protocols.  Identify areas for future work, especially if there are needs for 
additional protocol work.  Allow for the NSIS protocol to be deployed in 
different parts of the Internet, for different needs, without requiring a complete 
end-to-end deployment.  Support and take advantage of other protocols.
