Windows is running code too, but it's not an IETF standard :-).

If CheckPoint wants to declare something it implemented as being 
BTNS, despite the lack of an IESG-approved document, and in light of 
the ongoing changes to the document, I guess it's a good marketing 
ploy, if not good IETF behavior.

Before the RFC was issued (after several months in the RFC Editor's 
queue), or before the document was approved by the IESG?

That's an irrelevant example, i.e., a protocol developed outside the 
IETF which may be published as historic, as a compromise.
