1.  Introduction

   This document will be used as a basis for point scoring at upcoming
   RSerPool bakeoffs.  Its purpose is similar to that described in
   RFC1025.  It is hoped that a clear definition of where and how to
   score points will further the development of RSerPool.

   Note that while attending a bakeoff no one else will score your
   points for you.  We trust that all implementations will faithfully
   record their points that are received honestly.  Note also that these
   scores are NOT to be used for marketing purposes.  They are for the
   use of the implementations to know how well they are doing.  The only
   reporting that will be done is a basic summary to the Reliable Server
   Pooling Working Group but please note that NO company or
   implementation names will be attached.

2.  Aggregate Server Access Protocol

   The ASAP protocol and useful extensions are described in the follwing
   documents:

   o  [RFC5352]

   o  [RFC5354]

   o  [I-D.dreibholz-rserpool-asap-hropt]

   These points will be scored for EACH peer implementation that you
   successfully communicate with.
