  The RFC archive is at http://tmtowtdi.perl.org/rfc/


I suggest we zero-pad the RFC numbers for easy (string) sorting.

But how many digits are we going to need? ...

Figure six. If we blow that then I, for one, am outta here... :)

What about updating RFCs? Should I increment the version number and send
each new revision to perl-rfc? Do I need to be careful about the RFC
number when submitting updates?

Also, I assumed the intention of the RFCs was to stimulate focused
discussion and to keep a record of the decisions made during that
discussion in the RFC. Is that true? Or, asked another way, is the
maintainer of an RFC automatically responsible for tracking the related
discussions and recording the decisions made in them?

Well it would if the headers were set so the hitting reply would
not add -announce and -librarian

I would suggest a Reply-To being added to the RFCs as the are sent out.

 http://tmtowtdi.perl.org/rfc/meta/ says that you should send your RFCs to
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] rather than [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They go to the same place.  However, I meant to only mention -rfc, so
please excuse the brainfart of -librarian.  Both work.
