In The Internet Protocol Journal I have been using the following citation format, best illustrated by an example: Julien Meuric, Diego Caviglia, Don Fedyk, Attila Takacs, and Lou Berger, "GMPLS Asymmetric Bandwidth Bidirectional Label Switched Paths (LSPs)," RFC 6387, September 2011. So, that's full author names "and" before the last author name, title, document number and date, using the American "quotation outside punctuation rule." I got tired of doing this "by hand" so I asked Henrik if he could write me a tool. He did (THANKS!), and the result is here: http://tools.ietf.org/tools/citation/ This will take either the draft name or the RFC number as input and produce a citation similar to the one above. You can of course play with the elements and generate a format that suits your own taste, for example, for I-Ds, in print it might be good to have the FILE NAME as the last entry: Adam Langley, "Serializing DNS Records with DNSSEC Authentication," Internet Draft, work in progress, July 2011, draft-agl-dane-serializechain-01 ...since I like having filenames or URLs on one line (not wrapping) as much as possible. Many thanks again to Henrik, and I hope you will find it useful too! Ole Ole J.
