I found another link `http://web.archive.org/web/20131018091152/http://exif.org/Exif2-2.PDF` for spec version 2.2 which is a web archive but the connection is not secure.

Is it ok to have `https://www.cipa.jp/std/documents/e/DC-008-2012_E.pdf` link and update the Spec version to 2.3 ?

What do you suggest?
