+This is a Guix "channel" for the IETF RFCs.
+
+* How to use
+
+Create or modify the =~/.config/guix/channels.scm= file so it looks
+something like this:
+
+:  (cons (channel
+:         (name 'guix-ietf)
+:         (url "https://gitlab.com/efraim/guix-ietf.git")
+:         (branch "master"))
+:        %default-channels)
+
+Then run ~guix pull~ as usual.  Now you should have access to the full
+text listing of the IETF's RFC documentation. Be aware there are more
+than 8000 packages.
+
+* Requirements
+
+  * Guix > 0.15 (for the "channels" feature)
