Me too. RFC 2223 helped a little, but it is rather vague and incomplete. > This could be a pointer to the xml2rfc information (with > associated RFC), I looked at those, but found XML to be less of a tool than a barricade. > to tools for nroff, etc., Finding RFC 2223 insufficient, I wrote a set of macros and related tools. See draft-lilly-using-troff and related discussions on the RFC-interest mailing list ( http://www.rfc-editor.org/pipermail/rfc-interest/ ). > With the exception of an informative reference to RFC 2629, I'm not sure > this is something that can be in the guidelines, but it could certainly be > on the web-page. That would depend on the status of the document. If it's to become an RFC, then references to drafts can be only as a "work in progress" and references to web sites other than IETF/IANA/RFC-EDITOR are strongly discouraged. If it's just another random document, anything goes. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
