huge number of mobile devices that handle HTML effortlessly and IETF
legacy ASCII not at all
HTML is a good presentation format, but as an archival format it seems to
leave a lot to be desired, as the included links always seem to go stale.
Also, I don't think that the notions of "page numbers" and "table of
contents" have quite reached the status of "quaint and archaic".
large number of standard office printers that print HTML instantly and
correctly
My experiences printing HTML docs are a bit different, I guess.
Is there no tool that will html-ize an RFC or i-d for presentation? Folks
who want to read RFCs on their cell phones should be able to do it, but I
really don't see what that has to do with archival formats.
