Please, if you want feedback from me, do not point me to URLs.  URLs 
take time to click, and are invisible after some time whereas the 
message is still visible.

Better - paste the content here, so I can reply to it.

Of course, you are free to walk me back and forth between all sites of 
the Internet and wikipedia, and I will take advantage of that walking 
back and forth to maybe check whether it is secure, or whether it is 
IPv6 or just IPv4, or others.

But if we want to stay to the point, and if we are open to remarks and 
difficulties, and if we want to be kind to the humble submitter, then we 
listen.

How comes a file extension is not part of the draft?

Maybe it is not part of the draft _name_?

Nobody expects a file extension to be part of the draft (contents of 
that draft.)

, so in general it should end with the current draft number ("-", plus 
two digits).
