Greg,

I object to reclassifying RFC 1752 (the IPng recommendation itself). Admittedly,
it *is* a historic document in the true meaning of the word, but I don't think
its status as PS is wrong - it expresses the fact that there was rough consensus
in 1994. Just because a document is old doesn't make it obsolete.

I also don't see the point in reclassifying RFC 1550 (the IPng white paper
solicitation). It is informational today just as it was then.

I object to reclassifying RFC 1380 (the ROAD report). Again, it is informational
about the situation in 1992. Actually, I think that everybody should read it
every couple of years.

Finally I object to reclassifying RFC 1287 (the IAB/IESG "Future Internet Architecture"
paper). It's information on how things looked in 1991. Also, if issued today, it
would most likely be in the IAB document stream, so the IESG can't reclassify
it anyway.

Regards
   Brian
