Previously, the IESG and IAOC legal team asked the IETF community for 
feedback [1] regarding new Note Well text. Based on the feedback 
received, the proposed Note Well text has been revised.

The current Note Well is available at 
https://www.ietf.org/about/note-well.html, and the proposed new one is 
below.

The IESG will make a decision about this matter shortly. Please provide 
comments, if any, to ietf@ietf.org or to the IESG at iesg@ietf.org 
before April 8, 2016.
