I have in my archives a brief discussion we had on 2013-06-26 about this very issue. It was never resolved cleanly, and so we find ourselves here today with my file: draft which says it obsoletes an already obsolete RFC even though it only replaces one sub-section thereof (§3.10, about half a page of RFC 1738) -- like telnet and gopher. I wouldn't be surprised if this piece of metadata ends up being a bit of a blocker, so it'd be good to get it straightened up. Cheers -- Matthew Kerwin http://matthew.kerwin.net.au/
