Cool, but the documentation projects I really use often are ones that take the often antiquated presentation of the open-source site and puts it together in an easier-to-search/view way.

Example: http://docs.gl/

What about...oh I dunno, maybe a few lists? By category, by number? Maybe a nice 'reader mode' for the actual .txt files? Sorry, maybe that's outside the scope of what you're going for here, I just don't usually mentally organize RFCs by their number. Instead I usually think, 'the RFC about TCP,' or whatever.

I would love to say rfc.me/bgp (for instance) and get what I’m looking for without wading through obsoleted RFCs. This would be a solid next step for the author. Significantly more work though.
http://altsoph.com/pp/rfc/ is the exact opposite. A fun visualization that will get you to go look at all those obsoleted RFCs!
This would be an excellent idea and I will absolutely throw this in a todo list.
