[rfc-i] html anchors in rfc-editor queue

[falk at ISI.EDU (Aaron Falk)]

Hi-

Here's a nifty thing.  We've added anchors to entries in the RFC Editor 
queue to allow linking directly to a document of interest.

For example, try

http://www.rfc-editor.org/queue.html#draft-ietf-ipv6-rfc2012-update

Be aware that we're just rolling this out so there may be bugs.  Please 
play with it and send us comments or even if you just find it useful.

Thanks,

--aaron (for the RFC Editor)

  There are lots of places with rather restrictive policies.
  This may be because of politics ("great firewall of china"), or
because bandwidth is so expensive that doing anything "interactive"
like FTP/WWW is slow. 

  On the other hand, email happens asynchronous to the user, and can get
queued up for later use.  I hate that we use email for this - my opinion
is that if we had a good non-interactive file transfer protocol that 
people would never send documents by email, and therefore our virii
problem would never have occured.

  So, I too, would ask if there is a way for these folks that need this
service to get things another way - but I think just saying they have
no business is not right.
