Dale:
The xml2rfc tool was declared critical to the IETF because of the use by the
RFC Production Center.
________________________________________
Not because a large fraction of the draft authors use it?
Yes and no. If so many authors we not using it, then xml2rfc would not be
important to the RFC Production Center. There are many tools used by I-D
authors, including nroff/troff/groff, NroffEdit, MS Word templates, LaTex, and
a plethora of editors. The IETF cannot take on every tool that seems popular.
In this case, the RFC Production Center will become more effective, and that
represents a return on the investment, and it will also help many I-D authors.
