I support Stewart's Discuss.
Although the resultant long list of "updates" may be a nuisance to some, it is important for the person who plans to update one of the other RFCs to know that this update exists.

I am a bit confused why the document talks about RFCs using the old (1988) syntax, but only describes the updates from 2002 to 2008.

I support Stewart's DISCUSS in regards to updating other RFCs, in particular RFC 5911, which defined earlier versions of new style ASN.1 modules.

I don't have much opinion regarding Informational versa PS, but I think PS would have been just fine.

Which tool was used to verify the new ASN.1?

1. I support Stewart's DISCUSS

2. I think that the title of the document is too general and should be more specific - e.g. 'Additional New ASN.1 Modules Using the Cryptographic Message Syntax (CMS) format.

IMO, this should be PS *and* formally "Update" these other RFCs. See Stuart's discuss.

For Stuart and Alexey: I raised very similar questions during the processing of 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-smime-new-asn1/history/>. This document is
following the same pattern that document did.
