Re: [netmod] [Errata Held for Document Update] RFC8407 (6899)

I suppose.  In 2018 when this RFC was published, the Trust still said 
"Simplified" so what's in the text matches what the author intended at the 
time.  Not a big deal either way for me, since as I noted, the actual 
license it points to has always been correct.  Only the name was wrong.

R's,
John

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.
