- simoncion 11y agoI expect that your sarcasm detector was already broken. The IETF generator links to plain-text and PDF versions of the RFC, diffs between the current version and previous versions of the document, errata applicable to the RFC, and uses a fixed-width font. These are all nice properties.
- nailer 11y agoFormatting output for specific presentation devices (78 char wide screens) requiring a Chrome extension or a PDF for readability isn't my personal idea of 'nice'.
- simoncion 11y agoOver the years, I've come to understand that -once you surpass the "comprehensibility/legibility" threshold- "readability" is no less subjective than "beauty", "pleasantness", or "good music". So. I'm glad that you're not in charge of the IETF's HTML RFC output. :)
