So, once that's done, there will be .xml files in the repository, built from
the .md files? (File, currently, but at some point I'll convert the pcap spec
to kramedown-rfc2629 as well.)

Yes, that worked for me on macOS Catalina. (I'm not sure whether Big Sur ships
with Ruby or not; Apple wants to stop shipping the scripting language
interpreters - or, at least, the ones not required by Single UNIX Spec
conformance - probably because they don't want to be responsible for making it
work *and* for keeping it up to date. That's the tradeoff with "OS vendor
provides third-party software" - the good news is it's there without having to
download it, the bad news is that you may not be getting the latest version.)
But that means that I can generate the .xml files on my machine, for checking
purposes. I was trying to find a Web server that could be handed a URL for a
kramedown-rfc2629 document and that would return an HTML/PDF/txt version of the
document, for display in the browser, similar to what the xml2rfc server does
for URLs pointing to an xml2rfc XML document, so that we could add links to
README.me.
