Thanks for writing this draft. I'll bounce the text to the FSF lawyers. However, my feelings are that this is not sufficient to make it possible for me to incorporate RFCs, and consequently to implement them, in my free software projects. Specifically: c. To the extent that a Contribution or any portion thereof is protected by copyright and other rights of authorship, the Contributor, and each named co-Contributor, and the organization he or she represents or is sponsored by (if any) grant a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, world-wide right and license to extract, copy, publish, display, distribute, and incorporate into other works, for any purpose (and not limited to use within the IETF Standards Process) any portion of the Contribution as long as the extract is not modified (other than -------------------------------------- translated into languages other than English), proper acknowledgement is given and as long as the ISOC copyright notice is included. It also being understood that the licenses granted under this paragraph (c) shall not be deemed to grant any right under any patent, patent application or other similar intellectual property right. My users require the right to be able to modify my products, and if I incorporate parts of RFCs, I can't fulfill the needs of my customers. I found that incorporating parts of RFCs is often required in implementations (think ASN.1 schemas, StringPrep tables). Further, it may be useful to clarify "proper acknowledgment". I dislike the acknowledgments required by the old 4 clause BSD license.
