As discussed during the IETF meeting in Mineapolis, here is a proposal for a
cache pre-filling topic that could be added within the taxonomy draft.

Comments are welcome...

> Cache pre-filling
>
> Description:
> Cache pre-filling is a push-caching implementation. It is
> particularly well adapted to IP-multicast networks because it allows
> preselected URLs to be inserted in one single time within all the caches
> that belong to the targeted multicast group. Different implementations of
> cache pre-filling already exist, especially in satellite contexts.
> However, there is still no standard for this kind of push-caching and
> vendors propose solutions either based on dedicated equipments or public
> domain caches extended with a pre-filling module.
