In the following 17 years, four additional versions of the Tao were published as RFCs: {{RFC1539}} in October 1998, {{RFC1718}} in November 1994, {{RFC3160}} in August 2001, and {{RFC4677}} in September 2006. In August 2012, {{RFC4677}} was published to document the process for publishing the Tao as a webpage so that it "can be updated more easily".
