Dan P.S. Richard, yes, EPUB is great for the eBook readers... next I suppose you're going to want RFCs and I-D's in EPUB? :-) (And no, I am NOT really trying to stir up the recently concluded chapter in the ongoing IETF document format wars...) RS> Well yes actually. My original thread was actually invite the epub folks to hand over change control to the IETF like Jabber did with XMPP and then we could use a document standard that was IETF anointed and reviewed. Done. But then we wouldn't have the annual ritual of arguing about ID RFC formats and it just wouldn't be the IETF if we didn't do that. We have to stand for some traditions around here however irrelevant they are. Though as Cullen pointed out having things that could allow tablet readers to annotate and highlight text files like that would be a great boon and not printing these things out all the time is a bonus.
