The RSAB has received a request from the RFC Series WG (RSWG) to approve the following document as an Informational RFC on the editorial stream:

  <draft-rswg-rfc7997bis> (Text in RFCs)

The RSAB solicits final comments from a wide range of communities. Please send substantive comments to the rsab@rfc-editor.org mailing list by 2026-03-25. Please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract:

   This document sets policy for the inclusion of characters in the
   definitive versions and publication formats of RFCs.  The policy for
   the RFC Series is that all displayable text is allowed as long as
   there is a high expectation that readers of an RFC will be able to
   interpret its text as intended.  This document obsoletes RFC 7997.
