First, for RFCs of what categories is it legitimate to move them to
Historic.  Whether Experimental or Informational RFCs could be
considered for such action?  As far as I understand RFC 2026, Historic
can be assigned to Standards Track documents; however it won't be
excessive to clarify this regulation in the IESG statement additionally.

My understanding is that any RFC can be moved to Historic. But if this
is not clear from RFC 2026, maybe it is worth clarifying.

If 2026 doesn't limit what types of RFCs can become Historic, then I presume 
any of them can.  I'm not sure we need to make that explicit.
