The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Moving the Undeployed TCP Extensions RFC1072, RFC1106, RFC1110, RFC1145, RFC1146, RFC1379, RFC1644 and RFC1693 to Historic Status' (draft-eggert-tcpm-historicize-02.txt) as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the TCP Maintenance and Minor Extensions Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Harrington and Lars Eggert. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-eggert-tcpm-historicize/ Technical Summary This document recommends that several TCP extensions that have never seen widespread use be moved to Historic status. The affected RFCs are RFC1072, RFC1106, RFC1110, RFC1145, RFC1146, RFC1379, RFC1644 and RFC1693. Working Group Summary There was debate about whether RFC1263 should be included in this document because it is not an extension; it is an Informational document that describes an architectural approach that the TCP community chose not to follow. RFC1263 has been removed from the list of documents to be declared Historic. There was debate about whether the Alternate Checksum option should be removed from this document. It was decided to keep this item in the list. Document Quality This document declares certain features historic because they have not been widely implemented.
