Hi Martin, Eric, Timothy,

I took a quick look at 
draft-thomson-gendispatch-rfc-derivatives-00.  In regards to the IETF 
Stream, the IETF requested rights through the IETF Trust to produce 
derivative works (re. protocol maintenance).  I could not find 
anything in the draft which explains the conditions under which a 
more permissive licence should be applicable.

As background information, the Independent Stream was discussed 
around 2009 and it resulted in the publication of RFC 5744.  From 
what I remember, that Stream allows for derivative works.

Regards,
S. Moonesamy
