dereckson created this task.

New database produced by D3112 code is available at P336.

Next step is to deploy the new info2.db

So we need for that a workspace darkbot-db to:

store individual fixed databases (like manual entries updated on IRC)
publish scripts to rebuild dynamic databases
tools to hunt duplicates, so we can extract the entries not in rfc/ports/acronyms/netbox to get our entries

If we opt for dynamic RFC management, this is the command to use and document in that workspace (in a Makefile?)

rfc-datasource --format "rfc+%%id%% %%description%% %%fullstatus%%" > rfc.db
