RFC 4612 - historic status

["Yaakov Stein" <yaakov_s at rad.com>]

According to RFC 2026 historic RFCs are those whose

specification has been superceded by a more recent specification.

 

RFC 4612 is labeled historic, and defines a MIME type

for T.38 over RTP, a practice that is just now being adopted

and to be encouraged.

 

Indeed, the RFC discusses limitations of UDPTL,

but it does not suggest deprecating its use.

In any case the subject of the RFC is the RTP mode,

and not UDPTL.

 

So why the "historic" designation?
