Comment on 'derivative works'

Some comments I noticed during the discussion today:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bradner-submission-rights-00.txt

 >>>>
    The right to produce derivative works is required for all IETF
    standards track documents and for most non-standards track documents.
    There are two exceptions to this requirement:  documents describing
    proprietary technologies and documents that are republications of the
    work of other standards organizations.
 >>>>

- 'standard track documents' suggests this is all about RFCs (and not
   about I-Ds,...). Robert Elz said this has to be clarified if it
   is also intended to cover I-Ds. I think it has to be clarified
   in any case. I think it should be fixed to include I-Ds, and in
   that case it needs to say something about I-Ds intended to go to
   standards track vs. others.

- It is not clear whether the two exceptions apply only non-standard
   track documents or whether they may/can also apply to standards-track
   documents. The former seems preferable to me.

Regards,    Martin.
