The BIER WG was initially chartered for Experimental work.  These two RFCs were of the
quality necessary for Proposed Standard, but were published before the WG was rechartered.
The BIER WG is now being rechartered to do Standards Track specifications and the core of 
the BIER technology is ready to also be promoted to that status.
