Re: [Tools-discuss] Re: Stable URL to a Working Group?

[Spencer Dawkins <spencer at mcsr-labs.org>]

If I might interject, I don't think the request was for a URL that appears 
to *be* stable (which is where this discussion went), but for a URL that was 
committed to *remain* stable.

That has something to do with a policy commitment, not just tools.

I should also add that Gen-ART (and other) reviewers are asking authors to 
remove references to working groups "because RFCs live forever while working 
groups conclude".

We could discuss that policy, but not without a committed URL for working 
groups that remains active when the workin group concludes.

Thanks,
