the IETF to reach out from the grave to update (i.e., remove)
their email address. Given another recent experience, I have to
wonder whether the tools would then tell them that they needed
to supply a new email address, either because former authors and
contributors are required to have email addresses or because
that a working email address was needed to verify the change.
The question at the beginning of the thread was about how to contact
the persons listed as authors of a RFC. Is it the responsibility of
the author of a RFC to ensure that his/her email address is
long-lived or is it the responsibility of the RFC Editor function?
