idnits question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am helping a newbie with a new draft.  idnits has the following warning:

  == Couldn't figure out when the document was first submitted -- there may
     comments or warnings related to the use of a disclaimer for pre-RFC5378
     work that could not be issued because of this.  Please check the Legal
     Provisions document at https://trustee.ietf.org/license-info to determine
     if you need the pre-RFC5378 disclaimer.

I can't figure out why.  Perhaps it is related to these warnings can be ignored?

  -- Obsolete informational reference (is this intentional?): RFC 2246
     (Obsoleted by RFC 4346)

  -- Obsolete informational reference (is this intentional?): RFC 4346
     (Obsoleted by RFC 5246)

  -- Obsolete informational reference (is this intentional?): RFC 5246
     (Obsoleted by RFC 8446)

  -- Obsolete informational reference (is this intentional?): RFC 6347
     (Obsoleted by RFC 9147)

And yes, they need to reference these older RFCs.  Or, rather, I am not the one to debate this point.  I am just working with them to get their work out.

Thanks

Bob
