Should someone think about possibly updating the RFC?
you are stuck in the situation that operators are faced in deciding what software to run on their network. if the internet-draft is updated you still need vendors to change their behavior and people to upgrade.
I agree, it is only one step on a long road. But you have to take the first step, if nothing else, so when a "new" vendor releases a product it won't include the old behavior. Or at least, an officially revised RFC gives customers another stick to beat their vendor.
