This is the most historically stable.

This is definitely wrong if you want a URI for BCP 47, whatever it
may be at any time.

> http://www.ietf.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt

This now works for retrieval and is to my mind the most plausible.

> http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/bcp/bcp47.txt

This seems to be equivalent to the preceding one.

> http://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47

This is wrong: HTML versions are never canonical.
