submissiontype: IETF

(And it is not a pi, just a top-level YAML entry.)

In RFCXMLv3, the stream is called “submissionType” [2], the Kramdown-rfc deStudLiFier allows you to write submissiontype (but maybe I should add “stream” as an alias).  You still have to write IETF in upper case, because that is the actual value of the attribute [1]:

I’m thinking about generating the default automatically, as xml2rfc is nonsensically warning about the default value being used (that’s why it’s the  default?  It’s not a “fallback” value…).

(I’m also planning to put in a standard set of “silence” PIs…)
