Here's part of an email that I posted last week on the ipr wg list,  
which hasn't received much comment but I would like the trustees to  
consider:

When I was updating section 4 [of 1id-guidelines]
(which talks about the optional
restrictions in 6b.) I ran across a minor hiccough -- 3978 allows the
6.b.ii. statement, "This document may not be modified, and derivative
works of it may not be created, and it may not be published except as
an Internet-Draft.", to be split into two: "This document may not be
modified, and derivative works of it may not be created." and "This
document may only be posted in an Internet-Draft." are in different
sections of 3978.  The section of 3978 that mentions this also
mentions optionally giving extra permissions for MIBs/PIBs published
with this restriction: "other than to extract section XX as-is for
separate use."

-incoming only mentions that there are instructions in the Legend
Instructions, which I assume are the same as the IETF Trust's Legal
Provisions Relating to IETF Documents, so I can't really tell from
that whether the wg intentionally removed these options; the trust
intentionally removed these options; the trust unintentionally removed
these options; or other.

Thanks,
  Bill
