This paragraph only refers to documents which did not go through
the IETF process, as implied by the first sentence of 4.2.3.

   Unless they are the result of IETF Working Group action, documents
   intended to be published with Experimental or Informational status
   should be submitted directly to the RFC Editor.

This document was a TLS WG document, so had already been
coordinated with the IETF community.
