> I agree.  There may be lots of RFC in error because RFC8407 gets it wrong but if the update to the lots of RFC was wanted then it should have been investigated last Autumn when the announcement of the change to the TLP was made, an announcement that passed me by despite being on all the right mailing lists.

The fix to the TLP was my idea in the first place and it's not that big of 
a deal.  If you follow the link and read that part of the TLP, the actual 
license has never changed.  We just give it the correct name now.
