Don't be too surprised as the shepherd write-up touches on this.

While the IESG has done some work on relaxing downref rules, the WGs still 
struggle with how to handle foundation documents that will be essential reading 
(i.e., normative references) for later work.

My advice to the WG for this document was, "Push it through as Standards Track 
and let the IESG worry about whether it should be Informational or not."
I think my advice will remain, "Let the IESG tell us what to do, and we will do 
it. But don't go making changes unless instructed to do so."

Cheers,
Adrian
