94     The "Request for Comments" (RFC) document series is the official
95     publication channel for Internet standards documents and other
96     publications of the IESG, IAB, and Internet community. From time to
97     time, and about every six months in the last few years, someone
98     questions the rationality of publishing both Internet standards and
99     informational documents as RFCs. The argument is generally that this
100     introduces some confusion between "real standards" and "mere
101     publications".

114     It is a regrettably well spread misconception that publication as an
115     RFC provides some level of recognition. It does not, or at least not
116     any more than the publication in a regular journal. In fact, each
117     RFC has a status, relative to its relation with the Internet
118     standardization process: Informational, Experimental, or Standards
119     Track (Proposed Standard, Draft Standard, Internet Standard), or
120     Historic. This status is reproduced on the first page of the RFC
121     itself, and is also documented in the periodic "Internet Official
122     Protocols Standards" RFC (STD 1). But this status is sometimes
123     omitted from quotes and references, which may feed the confusion.

242     The IAB believes that the community benefitted significantly from
243     having a single archival document series. Documents are easy to find
244     and to retrieve, and file servers are easy to organize. This has
245     been very important over the long term. Experience of the past shows
246     that subseries, or series of limited scope, tend to vanish from the
247     network. And, there is no evidence that alternate document schemes
248     would result in less confusion.
