(Active) Drafts ?

Open vasilakisfil opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, is there a way to search for (active) drafts ?

I also saw the issue template, but I am a bit confused: don't you fetch the RFCs using an API from IETF ? Why a maintainer is needed ? For instance, I wanna track some RFCs regarding WebRTC, some of which are drafts like https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-rtcweb-security-arch-20.

RFCs are fetched from the RFC editor, processed, and stored in rfcs.json; that file is fetched by your browser. Including Internet-Drafts would make that file considerably larger, so that load times would be unacceptable.

Drafts could perhaps be a separate page/site, though; I'd have to look into how big the metadata for the hot set would be (including expired drafts would definitely be too big).
