Revision numbers are useless if you can't make revisions! Compare RFC 2068 and RFC 2616. One is clearly an updated version of the other, but the release of RFC 2616 changed nothing about what people mean when they refer to RFC 2068. What Debian is saying is that it would be a bad thing if *only* the IETF could ever release an updated version of RFC 2616.
