With RFC research it is always a good idea to use tools.ietf.org instead of
just www.ietf.org. Not only the former provides the RFC text with
hyperlinks, but it also includes information on updates:

<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6068>

(I have http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc%s with keyword “rfc” as bookmarklet
in Chromium.)

rfc-editor.org also is an up-to-date official reference:

<http://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc6068>

(Both are second and third in my Google search results for “rfc 2368”.
The plain-text version comes first.)

Not with javascript. Nonsense propagates like wildfire in this field.
