#Hi Bob:
#
#That's the citation from RFC 823 -- which suggests the IEN existed
#(one thing I wondered is whether the IEN number was assigned, but then
#the document morphed into RFC 827?).
#
If so, it appears to have happened to RFC 823 as well:
some of the mirrored IEN indexes even cite that RFC 823 was supposed
to be IEN 208 :-)
