I fail to see how this would be a problem. At time X, there is an announcement (on mailing list, internet-drafts@ autoresponder, whatnot) that archives will be made available. At time X+6 months expired drafts are purged, and all drafts are also archived. It can then be assumed that the author will be aware of the policy wrt. his drafts. -- Pekka Savola "Tell me of difficulties surmounted, Netcore Oy not those you stumble over and fall" Systems.
