Maybe someone could clarify the progress of the IS-IS RFCs from Informational to Standards Track.

It seems to me that this operation has been progressing for the longest time, and it is leaving everyone in a state of mild confusion about what they should be doing.

For example, if it is the intention that all IS-IS protocol RFCs will be Standards Track, then new I-Ds should have intended status of Standards Track. But that means that, until the old RFCs are upgraded, we automatically have a downref.

It seems to me that the downref process was not designed to handle this type of downref, and that we should just get on with things instead of enforcing this particular rule.

Ross:

I think you have to issue a second Last Call to resolve this problem.

OK, what shall we do to cover this point?
