Criteria for a successful errata system

  1. a measure of a successful errata system will be one visually and through metadata differentiate between levels of usefulness for an implementer/reader.

Proposal 1

Replace the concept of errata with a system that would allow anyone to comment on an RFC, with the RFC Editor or stream controllers to mark some concepts as important. The 'errata system' would be a system of comments, not a system of discretely managed items. Comments that stream controllers (or their delegates) mark as important could then be shown through an “errata” link. Alternatively, there could be a general 'mod up/down' [1] system that anyone with a datatracker account could use to indicate the importance of the entry. The RFC Editor could handle unambiguous typos
