Difference (from prior major revision) (no other diffs)

Added: 4a5,6

All internet standards are given a number in the STD series. The first document in this series, STD 1, describes the remaining documents in the series, and has a list of proposed standards. Often, documents in the STD series are copies of RFCs or are a few RFCs collected together. For example, STD 8 defines the core of the telnet protocol and comprises RFCs 854 and 855.
