RFCstandardeja

RFCstandardeja is a term used in Estonian-language discussions to denote a curated collection of RFC-based standards. It is not an official designation by the IETF. The concept treats RFCs that have been published as standards-track or that are widely recognized as standards, and presents them in a localized, annotated reference.

In practice, a project or resource named RFCstandardeja would gather the official RFCs relevant to Internet standards, their statuses (such as Proposed Standard, Internet Standard), translations into Estonian where available, and explanatory notes about scope, usage, and security considerations. It would aim to provide context, examples, and cross-references to the original IETF documents to support learning and implementation.

Origins and scope: The idea often arises in communities focused on IT education and documentation in Estonian, serving as a language- and region-specific way to organize and access standards. RFCstandardeja would function as a metadata-rich catalog rather than a separate governance body for standardization itself.

Relation to RFCs and governance: The repository or project would rely on the official RFC series published by IETF and the RFC Editor. Translations and annotations would be for educational and practical use, with maintainers tracking new RFCs and updating entries. Cross-links to the original IETF pages would be included to preserve authoritative sources.

Use and limitations: Benefits include improved accessibility, localization, and teaching of networking and Internet concepts. Limitations include potential translation quality issues, update cadence, and the risk of divergence from the original texts if not regularly synchronized with authoritative sources.
