Another thing the IETF could do is stop publishing this sort of document. Anyone that might ask the IETF to publish one can easily publish it on Internet himself. In the cases where an experimental RFC is useful, how is it more useful for the Internet than publication of the same information in some other way? Long ago, before search engines, perhaps interested people would not have found it elsewhere, but that isn't true now. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
