Ticky, who cares about 80% if it works, or 99% if it doesn't ?
components that I was thinking about are:
1. Packet structure
2. Query format
3. State transitions
For modern RFCs you'd also have a bunch of 2119-keywords.
If you have any ideas, I will be very much willing to know
about it.
A hard part is to get an agreed upon conformance test suite.
And then do something with "inconclusive" outcome. One case
where "93%" results were not plain nonsense was the "good
newsreader seal of approval" (or similar), but that wasn't
strictly based on RFCs, it's input for a draft.
