Just to save myself a bit of work if this already exists ....

Have any of you written a script when, given a list of RFC numbers, will
generate an xml2rfc-ish reference and pull out the abstract for each RFC?
Something like, when given "8660", will produce:

   [RFC8660]  Bashandy, A., Ed., Filsfils, C., Ed., Previdi, S.,
              Decraene, B., Litkowski, S., and R. Shakir, "Segment
              Routing with the MPLS Data Plane", RFC 8660,
              DOI 10.17487/RFC8660, December 2019,
              <https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc8660>.

   Segment Routing (SR) leverages the source-routing paradigm.  A node
   steers a packet through a controlled set of instructions, called
   segments, by prepending the packet with an SR header.  In the MPLS
   data plane, the SR header is instantiated through a label stack.
   This document specifies the forwarding behavior to allow
   instantiating SR over the MPLS data plane (SR-MPLS).

Thanks,
Andy
