Dave,
The URL above works for me as posted. On that page, it clearly says "RFC Sub-series", and under that, "Standards (STD)".
bob,
I've just looked at rfc-editor.org and rfc-editor.org/rfc.html. Neither of them give any indication that there is such a means of listing STDs.
The URL I gave above is the 6th bullet on the rfc.html page. (It is so far down because people don't very often seem to want RFCs simply listed by category ("status")).
For that matter <http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc.html> lists indices to RFCs, FYIs and BCPs, but not to STDs!
Actually, that page lists 10 different views of the RFC collection. The hyper- linked FYI and BCP subsets are contained in the 5th one down. STDs are not listed here because (1) STDs are listed elsewhere on the page, and (2) people usually really want the information in Official Internet Protocol Standards, which is the first link on the page.
I am a little surprised that this is a surprise to you. A good deal of thought and
effort went into creating these views.
