Suggestions for Future Document Format Requirements for RFCs and Internet Drafts
ثبت نشده
چکیده
A dwindling fraction of authors of I-Ds and RFCs are still fluent in nroff, the official input format for RFCs. With the use of other tools, the consistency and layout quality of RFCs and I-Ds has suffered. Printing, hyperlinking and viewing of ASCII documents are unsatisfactory. In this document, we investigate how the I-D and RFC series can be upgraded in usability while maintaining stability, longevity and cross-platform abilities that have been hallmarks of the RFC series.
