See https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7321/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc8221/ and you can see that the information is already correct. > 8221 states properly: > > Obsoletes: 7321 This is in the RFC text itself and this is the proper place to indicate that this obsoleted something. > but 7321 is missing: > > Obsoleted by: 8221 The actual RFC7321 cannot include text that it will be obseleted as when it was published that was not known, and RFCs are not modified after they are published. The metadata header in the tools.ietf.org (the grey background block in the beginning) can inclulde this information, but as tools.ietf.org pages are not generated using the same database than what is used by the datatracker, they can use old cached information that is not up to date. It most likely uses the rfc-index file to get that information, but I do not know how often it pulls that version from the rfc editor and how often it will recreate the html version of the rfc (RFCs do not change so there is no point of generating the html version on the fly for every request, so it will generate it every now and then and use cached version then). > Can someone fix that? Most likely someone can, but there is nothing I can do for this, as fixing this most likely would require cleaning the cached entry for the rfc7321 from the tools site, and regenerate html version after all other cached information has already been updated. Most likely this will get fixed by itself after few weeks or months or so when the old cached data is replaced with new data. Proper place to complain these things might be the [email protected] mailing list, but it is always better to check things in the datatracker.ietf.org first and see if this is tools.ietf.org related problem or whether there is real problem with the source data... -- [email protected] _______________________________________________ IPsec mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ipsec
