Re: I-D Action: draft-moonesamy-rfc2050-historic-00.txt

I object to making RFC 2050 historic without retaining at least the
content of its Section 1 as an IETF BCP.

While the IETF did formally hand over details of address
allocation policy to IANA, we did so knowing that the RIRs
themselves, and IANA, considered themselves bound by RFC 2050
(see the list of authors of that document).

An update of RFC 2050, within the scope set by the IETF-IANA
MoU, would be reasonable. Abrogation is not reasonable.
