which RFCs besides 1123?

1123 only has about 15 pages dealing w/ FTP, I hope there should be
enough of us here to determine what's still valid?

thanks!

I haven't applied 1123 to what I'm working on yet.

do you mean "Obsoletes: 1123"? if so, I don't think that's possible.
"Updates:" might be more correct, as 1123 contains much more than
those few pages on FTP.
