Whether you are or not.., the only way to do this is to stop calling
them "RFC"s.  Maybe we should have a "PROP" series for PS docs, and
only give them "RFC" numbers later, when they progress.

This is not far off Scott Bradner's 2004 suggestion of "Stable Snapshots" of I-Ds.

It's also like the (much more versatile) labelling proposal Keith Moore made here.
