Dave> RFC2068, HTTP/1.1, was published a little over half a year later,
Dave> which would appear to be "relatively soon".
The primary author of Informational RFC1945 with
the negative IESG note is Tim Berners-Lee.
He then pulled out of the IETF/IESG and formed
W3C.
Why do you think that happened?
Because he had specific ideas he wanted to pursue, and wanted staff to
work on them.
That required a different model than the IETF.
"Pulled out" is an exaggeration, however. W3C has sent people to IETF
meetings ever since it was founded.
And where is IETF/IESG with W3C now?
Cooperating quite well and respecting each others' areas of competence,
I think.
