RFC2246 has been superseded by RFC4346.
RFC4346 has been superseded by RFC5246
Dierks, T. and E. Rescorla, ""The Transport Layer Security (TLS) Protocol Version 1.2"", RFC 5246, August 2008. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5246.txt
It is incorrect to recommend (SHOULD) use of superseded standards. An implementation MAY honor a protocol that was defined by a superseded standard but superseded standards don't have the same standing as current standards.
