What people are actual asking for is a decent way to find RIPE (drafts-) documents.
As the person who proposed this, I have to disagree. What I was asking about was a way to know if "proposal 1234-56" refers to a proposal within the RIPE or the ARIN community. That being said,...
And that by various methods (keyword search, search by workgroup, policy type). One might be better of with something like the IETF <http://tools.ietf.org/html/> or the tools on <http://tools.ietf.org/html/> then a "trick to encode a look up scheme in an identifier". (Thnk DNS versus a Google search).
...appending yet another integer to mark versions is A Good Thing. Though I, personally, would simply set up gitweb or similar and dump everything in there. IETF's datatracker is OK-ish, but leaves a lot to be desired. Plus, keeping everything in a VCS allows everyone to read, track, compare and revisit history with a myriad of tools of their own choice, at a place of their choice, with the interface of their choice instead of forcing them to be online and to use a website.
