Brian, I won't object if others feel these RFCs ought not be reclassified as Historic. For what it's worth, my request was based on the "has been superseded by a more recent specification" clause of section 4.2.4 of RFC 2026: 4.2.4 Historic A specification that has been superseded by a more recent specification or is for any other reason considered to be obsolete is assigned to the "Historic" level. (Purists have suggested that the word should be "Historical"; however, at this point the use of "Historic" is historical.) Are there active WGs using these RFCs as a basis for their work? Are there active software development efforts based on these RFCs? :) No disrespect intended to any of the authors of these RFCs or the work they did.

Admittedly, it *is* a historic document in the true meaning of the word, but I don't think its status as PS is wrong - it expresses the fact that there was rough consensus in 1994. Just because a document is old doesn't make it obsolete. I also don't see the point in reclassifying RFC 1550 (the IPng white paper solicitation). It is informational today just as it was then. I object to reclassifying RFC 1380 (the ROAD report). Again, it is informational about the situation in 1992. Actually, I think that everybody should read it every couple of years. Finally I object to reclassifying RFC 1287 (the IAB/IESG "Future Internet Architecture" paper). It's information on how things looked in 1991. Also, if issued today, it would most likely be in the IAB document stream, so the IESG can't reclassify it anyway.
