Does anyone know of
any libraries that attempt to acquire / archive a complete set of
IETF proceedings ?
They might not read this list and should be contacted directly in my
opinion.

Actually, I *like* this option a lot.
I don't see any reason to continue to produce the CDs, but I do see a
need for a permanent archival

Is there strong rationale for maintaining production of the CDs?
No.
IMO, free online retrieval of IETF proceedings is sufficient.
Spend the time and money on something more important.
