Moreover, I think the reference is more about “please look at ways to cache data” more than a hard requirement. So I disagree with your proposal. The new -05 do not contain any change in that regard. So I’m looking for your reply if you still want me to change the reference</MB>

Otherwise, this Internet Standard will be published with a reference to a document we already know to be obsolete, which seems like an odd choice.  Changing the reference won't delay publication of this document since the referenced document is already in the RFC Editor queue anyway; it'll ship before this one does.
