While obsoleting is well-understood (replace the obsoleted RFC in its entirety), updating has more nuances because the updated RFC remains valid. This document contains some clarifications about how to handle updating in a way that makes it easier for readers to understand how the original and the updating RFC relate. Note to Readers This draft should be discussed on the wgchairs mailing list {[}1{]}. Online access to all versions and files is available on github {[}2{]}.}, }
