No, I do not agree with you. Our current definition for historic, and our current choices for when to move things, have worked sufficiently well. I have not seen any evidence that there is a problem that needs solving. I have also not seen any evidence that the changes you propose to the defini

Joel, I agree with you that it is really hard and even impossible to determine what is going on in the Internet regarding some technology, protocol, etc. If we set the impossible criterion for the Historic documents, this will really make very few sense. So, as I have been pointed out, I f

There are, in my opinion, two problems with Mr. Yevstifeyev's assertion below that it is easy to determine when things are out of use. The first point, to echo Andrew Sullivan, is that even if a protocol is in use on the public Internet, it is not always easy to detect. It may be used in only s
