BCPs aren't informational RFCs, for an introduction see RFC 4677
or <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Request_for_Comments#Status>.
Maybe you confused BCP with FYI, RFC 1855 is also known as FYI 28.

FLAME ON: It's now 12 years old, and some parts are rather silly:
Be careful with monospacing fonts, and be sure to have a signature
which you attach to your message.
FLAME OFF (flame tags recommended by FYI 28).
