I think the intent of Iljitsch's note was that the "list of IETF

Right.
There seems to be significant dissatisfaction about the fact that the
general public doesn't know about the difference between RFCs and
internet standards. I think a good deal of this ignorance is due the
invisibility of the standards list. (Google only lists 43 links to the
standards list, while the RFCs at www.ietf.org get 800, even though
this isn't their official home.)
(And me not being able to find the list without help from Google isn't
a good sign either. And yes, I did check the RFC Editor site but the
links were too non-obvious.)
