For instance, I have a printed copy. Of course. I have a printed copy of "Unicode Standard Annex #28: Unicode 3.2" too. Anyone can print a copy of an online document or burn a CD. The fact is that RFCs, like UAXs (but unlike major releases of Unicode) are published primarily online and not given ISBNs or ISSNs. They raise similar questions of trust, permanence and findability. -- François
