Description Julian Reschke 2014-03-19 13:53:37 UTC 
The specs are approved and in the RFC Editor queue, waiting for publication.

(I can help with the changes as HTTP is now defined by 6, not 2 specs)
Comment 1 Anne 2014-03-19 14:51:30 UTC 
Please ping this bug once they are published.
Comment 2 Julian Reschke 2014-05-20 14:56:37 UTC 
...they should be ready in ~2 weeks.
Comment 3 Julian Reschke 2014-06-17 17:16:19 UTC 
The specs have been published two weeks ago. Is there anything specific you need in addition?
Comment 4 Anne 2014-06-17 17:35:08 UTC 
I guess this bug is now mostly affecting Fetch as XMLHttpRequest's HTTP dependency is gone (still there through Fetch though).

As for what this needs, a patch to https://github.com/whatwg/xref/ would help.

https://github.com/whatwg/xhr/commit/90c79d0c0a5dff16266c4b6673eca8bb512343f6

HTTPAUTH was not entirely obsoleted so leaving the latest stable reference intact.
Comment 7 Julian Reschke 2015-08-10 15:51:50 UTC 
RFC 2617 is obsoleted by the combination of RFC 7235 + 3 additional specs. The latter ones have been approved by the IESG and will likely be published in the next few weeks; see <http://www.rfc-editor.org/cluster_info.php?cid=C202>.

Will update the bug once the RFCs are published.
Comment 8 Anne 2015-09-26 09:46:31 UTC 
Still does not seem obsoleted. Please file an issue on GitHub once it is. Leaving this as fixed per comment 6.
Comment 9 Julian Reschke 2015-09-26 13:50:43 UTC 
Will happen next week. See <http://www.rfc-editor.org/auth48/C202>.
