well, I see nothing wrong with providing documentation and how-to's, I just
don't see that it should be elevated to an Internet Draft level...
Well, see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wkumari-not-a-draft/ .
Warren is a riot. I really should have put in a typo comment to him
about 'safely razor' which probably should be 'safety razor'. But then
kind of knowing Warren, this could have been intentional so I left it
alone. :)
by its very nature it needs to be constantly updated, so having it in a static
RFC is contrary to that
that is the value of Internet Drafts that many of us IETFers have figured
out. draft versions can just keep on going and the tools will take you to
the current draft. IDs have become neat working documents, though there is
more github work coming along. More workgroups are doing requirements docs
that will never be published as RFCs; they will stay as IDs. Much better
source of why did the wg do? than plow through the old mailing list
archives. The IESG is actually encouraging such a use of IDs.
Yup! Internet-Draft is a fine terminus for some types of document.
Many TLS registries now have a registration policy that explicitly calls out
an internet-draft that is never published as anything else, as a valid specification
for getting a codepoint assignment.
