Perhaps.  They are requests for comments.  One of the comments may be that technology has changed, or risk profiles (or any number of other assumptions or realities have been bent).  I think retiring authorship isn’t really a useful way, but is the perpetual archive of comments just the e-mail archives or should there be a more prominent way for an author to submit comments for the historical record?
