It looks to me like the replaced-by information in drafts is being applied inconsistently. For example, if you look at: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-holmberg-sipping-199-04 The "Versions" line reads "00 01 02 03 04 draft-ietf-sip-199", which is correct -- that is, because draft-ietf-sip-199 replaced draft-holmberg-sipping-199, it appears after all the versions. If you click on the draft-ietf-sip-199 link, you get taken here: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sip-199-08 The "Versions" line links back to the draft that it replaced. Great! Now, lets look at: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sipcore-presence-scaling-requirements-01 It correctly links back to draft-ietf-sipping-presence-scaling-requirements, which it replaced. So far, so good. However, if you go to draft-ietf-sipping-presence-scaling-requirements: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sipping-presence-scaling-requirements-03 There's no link forward to the sipcore draft! The "Versions" line just goes up to 03, and stops. Certainly the tools should understand that the "replaces"/"replaced by" relationship is reciprocal. Is this database corruption, or incomplete data entry? It doesn't appear to be an isolated incident (cf., http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sipcore-keep-00) -- I would propose that an audit of the "replaces"/"replaced by" relationship data is in order... /a
