xml2rfc is a tool that converts Internet Drafts and RFCs written in the XML v2 or v3 format (RFC7749) into the canonical text format or the new HTML format. It is essential for IETF participants to generate the required submission formats for their documents. The tool ensures compliance with IETF formatting rules and standards.
Key Features:

  • Validates XML structure against IETF standards
  • Supports both v2 and v3 XML formats
  • Generates table of contents and index automatically
Use Cases:
  • Drafting and publishing IETF Internet Drafts
  • Converting existing XML RFC documents to HTML for web viewing
  • Validating XML syntax before submission to the IETF
Alternatives:
  • kramdown-rfc2629 – An alternative tool that converts Markdown to RFC XML, often used as a pre-processor before xml2rfc.
