Yes, I agree, and as I said I think that's the consensus. What I mean by "IETF documents" is what you mean by "IETF content," and I apologize for my lack of clarity—I was not merely referring to RFCs and internet drafts. That said, there's clearly some reason why you responded, I think to something that I said, by raising the concern that some public IETF content might not be accessible in this way. So probably the right thing to do is figure out if you still think that someone is proposing a solution which would have that as its result, and if so, explain why you think that, since it likely means that some technical problem was overlooked either in what I said or what was said previously.
