I think it was brought up on the techspec mailing list that we
do have a:

 Potential requirement: We need a source code control system
       into which the source material for an IETF spec is 
       created/mainatained.
       The IETF Technical Publisher must make any changes to
       the source material and ensure that an up to date source
       is checked into the source code control system when an
       RFC is published.

We can discuss which forms of source files would need to be handled.
But one way or another I think we really need to get an up to date
source file for all RFCs, so that future fixes/changes/additions/
extensions can easily be made, either by the same author/editor or
by new WG authors/editors.
