I think that, for implementors and adopters alike, a single, absolute definition is too simplistic a view to be meaningful in today's world. Merely renaming the STD series won't solve the problem of deciding when/if the STD-10 / IETF-EMAIL pointer should be changed from RFC-821 to RFC-2821. But that's a bigger can of worms. BTW, can anyone point me to documentation of previous attempts to solve that bigger can of worms?
The archives and meeting notes from the late NEWTRK working group should prove interesting, albeit not uplifting, reading.
In particular, draft-ietf-newtrk-repurposing-isd and draft-otis-newtrk-rfc-set should be entertaining.
The WG was shut down without reaching a conclusion. Harald _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
