I went to that URL, picked an RFC older than CRFC2XML and looked at it.
I found this comment:

<!--

     ASCII to XML transformation by Invisible Worlds, Inc.
     http://invisible.net/
     Last transformation: 03-Feb-1999, 02:07:49

     Cannonical version of this document is at:
     http://info.internet.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc/files/rfc2001.txt

     Implementors should verify all content with
     cannonical version.  Failure to do so may result in
     protocol failures.

http://invisible.net/ redirects to
http://museum.media.org/invisible.net/index.shtml which claims to be run
by 

	The Internet Multicasting Service
	A Nonprofit Public Research Corporation

	Welcome to the Internet Multicasting Service, a 501(c)(3)
	nonprofit public research corporation. We build and maintain
	public works projects on the Internet.

So apparently ASCII -> rfc2xml is a public works project.

Your deleted comments about possible mistakes are all true, but also
at least mentioned by the folks at IMS.
