Correct, sorry for the typo. And glad to hear it is still in active
use. It sounds like we should repackage rfcview as an independent
package. By the way, there was a request in Debian for sb-rfcview.el

Is that something you'd be interested in maintaining? Perhaps it might
make sense to bundle those together in the same release / VCS repo.

Yes, you can find them here

There is nothing very urgent there. I only mentioned the bugs because
the lack of response made me wonder about the state of the package.
