Re: draft-harris-ssh-arcfour-fixes-02: informational or proposed?

The argument in favor of publishing this document at proposed is that
the existing arcfour cipher is part of a standard and that many other
IETF protocols use rc4 in standards track documents.

previous mistakes are not valid justifications for new mistakes.
previous accidents are not valid justifications for deliberately weakening
new products.
