This is not a useful reference:

   It is inappropriate to use Internet-Drafts as reference
   material or to cite them other than as "work in progress.

With all due respect, that CFRG document is likely to get published well
before 4880bis, and it is entirely normal for I-Ds to cite other related
I-Ds.  Dependency chains and avoidance of referring normatively to "works
in progress" is handled as part of the normal operation of the RFC Editor
function.

So I must disagree with the statement that this is "not a useful
reference".
