  Now that we have this wonderful bibliography in XML of RFCs on
xml.resource.org, it seems that it should be trivial to convert to other
formats - bibtex for instance.  A trivial search revealed some targets:
  
  http://liinwww.ira.uka.de/bibliography/Distributed/rfc.html points to
    ftp://ftp.math.utah.edu/pub/tex/bib/rfc.bib

  which no longer accepts anon-ftp, but:
    http://www.math.utah.edu:8080/pub/tex/bib/rfc.html

  which is HTML-ized, but, a bit of deduction on the above gets me:
    http://www.math.utah.edu:8080/pub/tex/bib/rfc.bib

  as the raw file, but whose last entry is 2520.

  Other hits, include a question in 1990 from someone looking for such an
repository...

  And then there is RFC1807, which defines another format.
  And...  http://www.cc.gatech.edu/classes/RWL/Projects/citation/Docs/Marketing/fall98.nathan.results/bp.html

  which suggests that it is a program written in Perl to convert from
different formats, but no link to the program itself.
