They are being targeted for informational. And note the additional 
language I included in the IETF LC for these documents:

These documents were a product of first the PPVPN WG, and later the L3VPN
WG. They passed WG Last Call, but have not been actively discussed in the
WG for some time. There is little interest to work on CE-based VPN
problems within the WG today. The L3VPN WG is being rechartered to reflect
this, and these documents are being advanced as Informational for the
historical record.
