It's not "rather than". The issues are orthogonal. The reasons for
getting an ISSN have been posted. ISBNs for individual RFCs is a
separate issue that would not be affected by getting an ISSN for the
series.

Can you explain why you are suggesting using an ISSN for the whole
series, rather than ISBN for individual RFCs.
 
regards
 
Keith

		OK, maybe I'm getting suspicious in my (still slowly)
advancing years:
		  

		Nowhere in the message did I see words like, "The Trust
has consulted 
		with lawyers/doctors/priests/old-crusty-IETFers and have
found no 
		disadvantages to identifying the RFC Series with an
ISSN."

	The Trust did consult with lawyers, old-crusty-IETFers, RFC
Editor, and found no disadvantages to indentifying the RFC Series with
an ISSN.  
	

		 Did the 
		Trust actually find no potential problems (in which case
it would be 
		nice to hear that), have they not looked into it yet, or
did they 
		find problems and you're not saying because you don't
want to have a 
		big public discussion (in which case you're being dopey,
because it's 
		gonna happen anyway)?
		  

	That we know!
	

		(For the record, had you said that the Trust did in fact
consult the 
		tea leaves and everything looked on the up-and-up and
they were 
		simply confirming this with the community, I would have
immediately 
		said, "Fine with me." I'm happy to have people to whom
such things 
		can be delegated, but I do want to hear the words "We've
done our due 
		diligence.")
		  

	We've done our due diligence, but we respect the community and
the process, and seek its guidance.
