So what does HISTORIC mean? -- bad protocol (advice is to get rid of it), as in RIPv1 -- bad specification, but the protocol is alright -- an underlying/related technology is dying out slowly -- an underlying/related technology is used mainly in parts of the world many IETFers don't visit that often -- the market is stable, so there won't be new implementations -- existing open source implementations are doing well, so there won't be new implementations -- there is unlikely to be new development about this standard, as in IPv4
