16. This RFC updates RFC5230 and RFC5435.
RFC5230 and RFC5435 have been listed on the title page header, listed in the
abstract. In the introduction, there has only one sentence which mentions
" This document also specifies the interaction of :fcc with the Vacation
[RFC5230] and Notify [RFC5435]
extensions.
"
but it does not clearly indicates which part of RFC5230 and RFC5435 is updated
by this document. I think that the author might need to clarify it in the
introduction of the future new version.
