It shouldn't apply to anything that claims to conform to any RFC, since
such a claim implies that the software or process does abide by the
rules in said RFC. And in that sense the RFC would indeed be a
specification, be it if only to arrive to interoperability. Or lack of
it, which is clearly the case here. Finer details ceratinly fit in the
discussion about cases like this.

But we are getting off-topic really fast here ;)
