We have two requests for comment indices on

The current system requires manually updating the various lists, which is
kind of gross as the lists predictably fall out of date. I've proposed and
begun to implement a classification scheme that will allow us to automate
the generation of these indices. Details of this scheme are available
here: <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Permalink/1315007#Cleanup>.
One consequence of this change is that the "Updated" and "Status"
table
columns will likely go away soon. Looking at the contents of these table
columns, I think ditching them is probably fine.
This is now done. We simplified the RFC infobox template to use a single
status parameter and all of the requests for comment should now be coded.
I added a few lines of JavaScript to
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadget-site.js> to hide the
"Requests for comment/" prefix. Code review and optimization very welcome.
