We are at a point where making trivial changes to headers and boilerplates
leads to discussion about more substantive matters and causes even more delay,
folk wanted it done. It is unfortunate that the stutter (I agree its there and
that its ugly) remains in the document.
Headers and boilerplates lives on this tangent between community wishes, RFC
oversight, and RFC Editor series continuity and style. Having learned from
getting H&B done, I believe that in the future such efforts should be pulled by
the RSE, with IAB oversight and not by the IAB with RFC-Editor input.
FWIW, the document allows the RFC editor some headway in maintaining the
language in the style guide.

I just heard that the RFC 5741-to-be is not going to be fixed with
respect to the stutter in the boilerplate, such as in:
-- snip --
3.1.6.2. Text of 'Status Of This Memo'

(see <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-reschke-hab-01#section-3.1.6.2>).
This problem was reported over three weeks ago. Are we really incapable
to fix something simple like that within three weeks?
Best regards, Julian
