As an alternative perspective... while the RFCs are great, it's taken me weeks (maybe months now) to hack together a not-yet-functional TCP/IP stack. I've never dug below the application layer before. I'm still working through it. I cannot even say if the RFCs are sufficient, but I'll take your word.
