<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='introduction'>
  <p>The current methods for file transfers include basic meta data about the
file being offered (name, size, and date). There currently is no way to provide an image thumbnail for files such as photos.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Requirements' anchor='requirements'>
  <p>This documents defines a way to include a thumbnail image as an additional metadata in a file transfer.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Use Case' anchor='usecase'>
  <p>When a client wishes to supply a thumbnail in a transfer offer, it can do so by including an extra <![CDATA[<thumbnail/>]]> element as show in the following exaples.</p>
