[Docutils-develop] [docutils:feature-requests] Re: #61 Support for :BCP: role, similar

I've updated the implementation, please see https://github.com/AA-Turner/docutils/pull/2.patch // https://github.com/AA-Turner/docutils/pull/2

OK, dropped

I can't remember, but I agree with you. Dropped this.

> How about the following ...

I think I'd prefer keeping the change smaller for now -- one thing I did do in the most recent update is create a factory function `rfc_like_role`, so there is the option to extend Docutils to add custom things should people need it.

** [feature-requests:#61] Support for :BCP: role, similar**

## I wish

- support for referencing IETF Best Current Practices, eg:  :BCP:`47`role 
- the processing is similar to :RFC:

## Notes

- sphinx people suggests that goes in docutils. see  https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/6255
