Just some small updates to the scripts that generate the lists of IETF Drafts and RFCs. A few bug fixes mean that especially with the RFCs they should cross-link better when it comes to updates and obsoletes.
Still Alive
I know it’s been a little while since the last update but I’m still trying to keep the site alive with some relevant content. I’ve just removed some dead links and also included RFC7113 on RA-Guard. In addition to this added a bunch of more recent whitepapers from the 2011-13 North American IPv6 Summit meetings as well as DEFCON.
Tools update
The security tools section has now been updated to separate out the more attack specific tools and this list has also been updated. In addition to this there are some minor RFC and IETF-Drafts updates.
Minor RFC Updates
Some minor RFC updates to rfc1788, rfc6890, rfc6918 and rfc6946.
