i can not find 'onboard' used as a verb in any rfc.  so anything is a
guess.

try draft-ymbk-bgpsec-rtr-rekeying-00.txt, which i thought was asked to
be adopted by the wg.  probably my screw-up.

this is the ietf.  i am fairly sure someone does.  i just think they
would be extremely ill-advised to do so.
