Re: RFC 4612 - historic status

Because the IESG believed that specifying an image format
as an audio subtype was to be discouraged, but should be documented
for reference.

The standard MIME type for T.38 is image/t38 (RFC 3362).

According to RFC 2026 historic RFCs are those whose
specification has been superceded by a more recent specification.
RFC 4612 is labeled historic, and defines a MIME type
for T.38 over RTP, a practice that is just now being adopted
and to be encouraged.
Indeed, the RFC discusses limitations of UDPTL,
but it does not suggest deprecating its use.
In any case the subject of the RFC is the RTP mode,
and not UDPTL.
So why the "historic" designation? Y(J)S
