I don’t have a dog in this fight, but some extremely important RFCs are only on the “informational” track. RFCs 1945 (HTTP 1.0), 4627 (JSON), 2818 (HTTPS), etc.
- tptacek 2mo agoHTTP, JSON, and HTTPS all have standards-track RFCs.
- cornstalks 2mo agoAs far as I know HTTP 1.0 doesn't have a standards-track RFC (HTTP 1.1 and later do). JSON and HTTPS do indeed have standards-track RFCs, but I stand by my original wording that their first informational RFCs were "extremely important."
