  *> The Design of the Telnet Protocol for the ARPANET
  *> Outline
  *> December 5, 2002
  *> 
  *> -Introduction
  *> 
  *> -The State of Networking and the Struggle to Organize (ARPANET
  *>  introduction)
  *> 
  *> -Ad-hoc Telnet: The First Attempts at Demonstrating Remote
  *>  Login on the ARPANET (Late 1969)
  *> 
  *> -The Old Telnet Protocol (1971 - 1973)
  *>   =Why Telnet Became a Protocol
  *>   =First Issues in the Effort to Standardize (Early 1971)
  *>     +The Need for a Consistent Character Set
  *>     +To Echo or Not to Echo

	  The end-of-line problem: CR, LF, CR LF, or ...?

  *>     +The Trouble with Interrupt Handling on the Server Side
  *>     +Making the Telnet Connection
  *>   =The Necessity of the Network Virtual Terminal and the N^2 Problem
  *>   =The Experience with Old Telnet (1973)
  *>     +Asymmetrical Control Structure
  *>     +Little Room for Expanding the Number of Control Functions and Options
  *>     +The Problem with the Character-at-a-Time and Line-at-a-Time Hosts
  *> 
  *> (what follows has yet to be written)
  *> -The New Telnet Protocol (1973 - 1980)
  *>   =The More Symmetrical Telnet: WILL, WONT, DO, DONT
  *>   =Negotiated Options - A Key Concept
  *>   =Solving the Echoing Problem
  *>   =Expanding the Set of Control Functions with IAC
  *>   =Help for Half-Duplex Systems: The Go-Ahead Control Function
  *>   =Comments and Experiences with the New Implementation
  *> 
  *> -Conclusion
  *>   =Summary
  *>   =Relationship between the ARPANET Telnet and Today's Telnet
