Howdy, A few reasons, including the fact that informational RFCs "don't count" (except to marketroids who view all RFCs as standards, when convenient). I disagree that having a metadocument is inappropriate -- we need one reference point for URIs, and as long as we continue to develop the space by independant documentation (which does seem to be the best way to to do it), the simplest, easiest to keep-up-to-date path is a metaspec.
