Jorge - if the contributor's in a RC2026 controlled submission choose 
NOT to allow the new licensing models, then you are saying that the 
IETF's new rules apply?

If not specifically - which rules would apply. The point is that 
contracts require that the people being bound by them fully understand 
the terms and conditions, and if they don't then their gifts are faulty 
at best.

Is this or is it not true - and if not why Counsel
