not so.  2822 can be advanced in grade without revising it.  I think it
would also be reasonable to publish a separate list of errata and
declare 2822 + that list to be a draft standard, though I don't know
whether IESG would go along with that.

I think that would be needlessly annoying to implementors.  Reading errata
lists is frustrating and time-consuming.  If someone is going to do all
the work required to produce the errata list, why not incorporate it into
the document and just publish the revised document?
