Errr, maybe. The IESG could easily choose someone else; many individuals in 
this community would be fine at being the Tao editor. Remember, I was the third 
editor of the document.

Can you say what was "not so clear"? I absolutely want that bit to be clear. 
Proposed text is appreciated here.

Earlier versions of the Tao were made obsolete, not moved to Historic, so I 
thought it was most appropriate to do that here as well. FWIW, the definition 
of "Historic" in RFC 2026 is for specifications, not descriptive documents like 
the Tao.
