In my original note, I wrote, as one option "...could be > done by ... [or] by a revised statement justifying the change > in maturity level". That would certainly be consistent with > the above. Does this work for you? If not, please adjust and counter-propose: OLD This status change, therefore, requests a change in status for RFCs 7480 and 7481 from Proposed Standard to Internet Standard. NEW This status change, therefore, requests a change in status for RFCs 7480 and 7481 from Proposed Standard to Internet Standard. While it is a stated goal in RFC 7480 that "RDAP is a successor protocol to the very old WHOIS protocol," WHOIS remains widely deployed and in active use, and is likely to be so for some time. This action addresses only the maturity of RDAP itself, and makes no statement nor implication about WHOIS.
