Obsoleted by: 3986

[Relequestual]

RFC 1808 is Obsoleted by RFC 3986.

You note in the readme that this project does not use the living standard.
Is it worth also noting that RFC 1808 is now obsolete, and the differences in what this library supports?

Fine with me. I already highlighted some of the differences but if there are more important ones feel free to add them :)

[Relequestual]

I don't know what the differences are! I was hoping as an implementer, you might 😅

[tjenkinson]

Ah I see. I think the main difference is the one I mentioned on the readme.

I doubt much else has changed, but I haven't spent loads of time checking the differences, and also I think the living standard one can change over time so it could always be out of date.

That's... a really good point. Compliant today, out of date tomorrow 😞.

Living standards are great for moving fast, but not for stability.
