I believe these 2 references need to be Normative, as they are required to
understand this document.
True, but this is an informational document, so why would any references be
normative?
This is something we spoke about in the working group, and you answered me the
same way. I think he's not saying (and I was not saying then) that the
references are normative for the Internet. They're saying that, unlike an
informative reference (which may give you a deeper understanding but for most
of the document are optional reading), you can't understand this document if
you don't understand those two.
Correct. And that is the definition of a Normative reference.
