as Keith points out - a round of this type of effort was
undertaken by the newtrk working group a while back

About five years back, IIRC, and with some limiting parameters.
I think this clean up was brilliant, and a new round with new
parameters would be a very good thing.

I will note that it took quite a bit of work to ensure that
technologies were actually unused

Again IIRC, you somehow created a list of "candidates", and
folks could object if they felt that something is still used.

If a new round picks only RFCs at a time when the concept of
"normative references" already existed it might be slightly
less work.
