My knowledge about old CD-ROM file system is limited to "works for me", and I didn't boot a DOS partition for years (well, once some months ago, but it was no situation remotely related to reading Internet-Drafts) But I don't see how potential PDF/A interoperability messes are necessary for the mere purpose of attaching figures to RFCs. As far as I can tell it PDF/A would not work for say "acroreader 3" because it embeds the relevant fonts. Users of this historic reader could upgrade to ghostscript, but I've not the faintest idea if it would allow them to create (not only view) PDF/A. Creating PDF/A is the key for "open and fair". At one point John even wrote "author or editor" where I think he meant "author or reader". But this also stresses my point: Can everybody *create* PDF/A ? With free tools on any platform they care about, maybe limited to "modern" non-mobile platforms of this millennium ?
