Which source
The source. The author certainly knows it (yes, I'm aware that the RFC
editor performs changes which are not backported in the author's copy,

bad).

with a snapshot of the tools that are used to process it. XML2RFC is a
moving target in that regard, as is Word.

Re XML2RFC: why do you need a snapshot if future development produces versions that continue to implement the semantics defined in RFC2629?
