Abstract:
   In 2013, after a great deal of community discussion, the decision was
   made to shift from the plain-text, ASCII-only canonical format for
   RFCs to XML as the canonical format with more human-readable formats
   rendered from that XML.  The high-level requirements that informed
   this change were defined in RFC6949, "RFC Series Format Requirements
   and Future Development."  Plain text remains an important format for
   many in the IETF community, and will be one of the publication
   formats rendered from the XML.  This draft documents the rendering
   requirements for the plain-text RFC publication format.  These
   requirements do not apply to plain-text RFCs published before the
   format transition.
