No, they are still active Internet Standards. The document you quote was
never an Internet Standard.

I don't see what referring to this again accomplishes. It's still an
Internet Standard (STD 7).


Rubbish,

TCP was defined by a plain old RFC long before it became an IETF standard.


You have still not pointed out anything "rubbish" or "nonsense" about
anything that I've said.


Au contraire, I've shown that your laughable attempt to dismiss the long
established netiquette RFC on the basis that it's not an IETF standard is
diversionary nonsense.
