All webpages we host are works in progress subject to change when better consensus emerges. Please do not affix any labels to the pages describing them as drafts as that only serves to discourage others from working on them. Normative policy documents are few and far between and you will recognize them by their self-descriptions as such.
Every interested party is welcome to collaborate with us to produce more informative and accurate webpages through the CMS. Please help out where you can. Our documentation becomes increasingly authoritative as more and more people refer to it in positive ways; ie the best documents wear well over time.
