Hi Giles,
Lots of thanks for a prompt response.

I have always thought that Historic RFCs describe something that has been implemented and deployed, but new standards are now in force.
E.g., original Martini drafts (which definitely have been implemented and deployed)  have been published as Historic RFCs.

For the sake of curiosity, is this the case with IPLS?

Regards,
       Sasha
