[Tools-discuss] Re: [rfc-i] Re: Demo of the Rfc-Editor website at IETF 124

[Alexis Rossi <[e-mail]>]

Hi Ekr,

There are some things not functioning yet, as well as some wonky data, in
this case per Robert's email:
"This demo does not cover views of the queue or the errata system. Those will
be coming in the next several weeks."

Thanks,
 Alexis
