Submission + - No IETF April Fools RFCs this year, but new book!
JerseyTom writes: "IETF (the group that sets the internet protocol standards) often releases a hoax RFC document on April Fools Day. The most famous is the RFC 1149: Standard for the transmission of IP datagrams on Avian Carriers. Sadly, no new funny from IETF today. However, you can now get the complete collection of IETF humor in one book, perfect for the coffee table in your geek apartment, or on your bookshelf at work. The book includes commentary by famous Internet names like Bradner, Templeton and O'Dell. The project was coordinated by sysadmin author Thomas A. Limoncelli and Unix/Internet historian Peter J. Salus. Best quote from their web site is "When the network is down, this book won't help you at all!" More at www.RFC-Humor.com"
