Hi Robert,

thanks for your review! While I share your „sadness“, putting it in the document does not seem to be an option. 

But maybe this is actually a request for the tools team to provide another way to upload files (by wg chairs) than just the proceedings. I guess today people would rather upload something to GitHub but that also not something one would want to reference in an RFC. Is there actually still a way to request a svn repo for wgs? or should this be integrated somehow in the datatracker..? I believe we discussed this in the IESG briefly when we discuss GitHub. But I guess I, or actually you, could bring this up again. However, in this case it seems more like a tooling issue for me.

Mirja
