Julian, In the hope of being clear about what we are talking about and given Roman's repeated reassurances that none of the plan to retire the IETF's FTP serices has anything to do with the RFC Editor, would it be correct to say that you meant to ask about the IETF's I-D collection, RFC mirror collection, and assorted other documents available from the IETF to IETF tools sites? I'd almost equally or more chagrined if the RFC Editor site was producing broken documents, especially broken TXT documents (see note sent a few minutes ago), but they are not the same question. john
