The abstract mentions 'many people', because many people may mean 4 to 10
people. The annonced I-D lacks the method of discussion in the community
(discussing such change), the draft mentions the input from any community
individual to be accepted by editor and then approved by IESG, but does not
mention the methodology of discussion between community members nor between
editor and members, also no announcements of such updates mentioned in
draft.

Abstract
Discussion of the "Tao of the IETF" during 2012 made it clear that
many people want the document published only as a web page, not as an
RFC that needs to be periodically updated. This document specifies
how the Tao will be published as a web page.
