It already is, unless I'm missing something.

Done. I used your wording as a template and made some adjustments of my
own.
Actually, both AUTHINFO and STREAMING had RFC 2970 (instead of 2980)
listed as being updated in the boilerplate. I fixed this as well.

Actually all of the drafts in the references are updates to existing
RFCs (except for NNTP-AUTH and NNTP-TLS). I could just reference the
current RFCs if you want. Let me know what you want me to do, and I'll
resubmit right away if necessary.
