Yeah, getting us away from Information PEPs to normal Standards Track
ones is one of the reasons I started tinkering with the way we use the
PEP process. We really do want to be using Standards Track, but that
requires reference specs and implementations that provide the basis
for declaring the PEP "FInal".
