Bob,

It's not important the repository is kept by the IETF,
but the IETF may keep a pointer to it for those folks
interested in history (or actually understanding a paper 
they are reading), possibly with an advice on the 
nature of that site.

As far as the argument this would create confusion is
concerned, I don't think a guy walking in a old 
weapons museum believes to be visiting an arsenal
the army would use:)
