Right. There is a specification:
http://gbiv.com/protocols/uri/drafts/draft-ietf-uri-url-finger-03.txt
I asked if Paul knew why it didn't move forward, but he didn't
remember, and suggested we could update the document based on his
recent URI drafts, and publish it again. I don't have time to work on
it now, though.
Thanks,
