For 2), I note that

     https://github.com/pcapng/pcapng/blob/master/draft-tuexen-opsawg-pcapng.md

has a bunch of stuff that GitHub isn't treating as markup, such as the
stuff prior to the "Introduction" heading, and the tags such as
"{::boilerplate bcp14}".  Is that an extension of Markdown not
supported by GitHub's Markdown renderer but supported by some
Markdown-to-RFC XML converter

Yes, kramdown-rfc2629. The MT Makefile does all the magic.

(Presumably "the MT Makefile" is the currently checked-in Martin Thompson Makefile in GitHub.)

So is there anything we do to arrange that the "Current committed version as ..." links on the GitHub repository home 
page work again?

Should we, for now, put the XML documents back into the repository, and either

        1) arrange, somehow, that GitHub automatically regenerate the XML documents if the Markdown documents are 
updated, if that's possible

or

        2) have everybody who modifies the Markdown documents update the XML documents and check them in with the 
updated Markdown documents?

Or is there some site that will run kramdown-rfc2629 on a Markdown file and run xml2rfc on the result, along the lines 
of what xml2rfc.tools.ietf.org does?  I haven't gotten

        https://xml2rfc.tools.ietf.org/experimental.html#kramdown

to work - I tried pasting https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pcapng/pcapng/master/draft-tuexen-opsawg-pcapng.md into the 
URL box, selecting "Window", and hitting Submit, but it didn't seem to work, it just popped up a blank window.
