It seems that a consequence of the IETF's new service provider, it is no
longer possible to upload a free-format Internet-draft. Instead of just
emailing to internet-drafts@ietf.org, we're now supposed to use a web page
https://datatracker.ietf.org/idst/upload.cgi
which enforces the idnits requirements and spews forth:
Pages [sic] is not in numeric format.
Bah, humbug. Pretty formatting is the RFC Editor's job. Requiring such
for drafts is a waste of time.
