%         that said, it could be that the 40,000 or so legacy
%         draft authors won't care, but it would be sound hygiene
%         to ask them if they mind if RFC 3667 rules would apply
%         to their contributions.

% you are kidding - right?

	nope. not kidding any more than you are.

	In movie production, they have a team of folks ensure that
	all music used is properly credited and appropriate licenses
	aquired.  Disney did not perform due diligence and is facing 
	loss of all its trademark protection in South Africa for failing
	to properly clear some of the music it used in "Lion King".

	-IF- ISOC/IETF is going to attempt to retroactively assert
	a right to publish works under different rules than were originally
	granted -WITHOUT the Authors Permission-, then there will be a
	(perhaps) small number of legal challanges.  I think it would 
	be ethically more sound to ask permission first.

Opinions expressed may not even be mine by the time you read them, and
certainly don't reflect those of any other entity (legal or otherwise).
