I just had a look at http://tools.ietf.org/wg/6lo/ to check the active drafts.
This is a very useful resource, so it is worth thinking about its usability.

Right now, the active drafts view is cluttered by this replaced-by information:



	draft-ietf-6lowpan-btle
replaced by draft-ietf-6lo-btle	-12			2013-02-12  
	draft-ietf-6man-6lobac
replaced by draft-ietf-6lo-6lobac	-01			2012-03-12  
	draft-mariager-6lowpan-v6over-dect-ule
replaced by draft-ietf-6lo-dect-ule	-03			2013-07-15  


This is probably useful as long as the replaced drafts are themselves not too old.
But a reminder that a 2012 draft used to have a different working group than the current draft is probably not needed here and reduces clarity.

Do other users of this page care about this?

Grüße, Carsten
