Haven't read the discussion until now (will do that tomorrow) but let
me add F and cast the first vote in favor of it:
F) HTML that reverts back to usable ASCII (although I'm willing to
live without headers/footers and the whitespace may look a bit
different as long as it's self-consistent) when everything between <
and > is removed from the file and a very limited set of &*; sequences
has been searched and replaced.
No images because those can't be viewed without non-trivial tools and
they are extremely hard to modify from the published version.
I am in class E. I find being required to edit documents in
teleprinter format to be very insulting to me personally. I take a
great pride in my work and I do not like being forced to present it in
a format where the principle justification for it appears to be
'because we can force you to do it our way'.
replace "document format" with "xml2rfc xml format" and I'm with you
100%.
