Subject: [Imap-protocol] IETF no longer accepts free-format Internet-drafts
|
|
Message-ID: <alpine.WNT.1.00.0802061659000.4960@Tomobiki-Cho.CAC.Washignton.EDU>

It seems that a consequence of the IETF's new service provider, it is no
|
|
longer possible to upload a free-format Internet-draft. Instead of just
|
|
emailing to internet-drafts@ietf.org, we're now supposed to use a web page
|
|
https://datatracker.ietf.org/idst/upload.cgi
|
|
which enforces the idnits requirements and spews forth:
|
|
Pages [sic] is not in numeric format.
|
|
|
|
Bah, humbug. Pretty formatting is the RFC Editor's job. Requiring such
|
|
for drafts is a waste of time.
