This isn't being proposed as a standard, but as an informational
IRTF-track RFC. Those aren't the same thing, even though there
are a bunch of people who regard them as being the same.

PS: The header should also be fixed up to say IRTF and not
IETF, see, e.g. [1] for what it ought look like. That'd get
fixed later anyway, but no harm doing it now.
