11 Abstract
13 In order to meet the evolving needs of the Internet community, the
14 format for RFCs is changing from a plain-text, ASCII-only format to a
15 canonical XML format that will in turn be rendered into several
16 publication formats. This document defines the HTML format that will
17 be rendered for an RFC or Internet-Draft.
