Re: I-D ACTION:draft-ietf-ipr-outbound-rights-03.txt


----- Original Message ----s what IETF contributors can do with their own 
works outside of the IETF context.

  Authors of contributions retain all rights in their contributions.
  As such, an author may directly grant any rights they wish separately
  from what the IETF grants.  However, a reader wishing to determine or
  make use of such grants will need to consult external sources of
  information, including possibly open source code and documents, or
  contact the author directly.

Here this seem to re-establishes the normal IETF tradition, which is
good.

Garbage - there is NO IETF tradition. This is the lie that the IPR Working Group is using to promulgate these bad process models into rule and process "Oooooh its an IETF Tradition and the IETF community demands it..."

OK Simon - prove it. Lets force this issue of that all IPR rules must be approved by all of the IETF members in place when those rules are modified, and that all the sponsor's of those individuals must also at the Corporate or Entity Counsel level, sign off on the IETF's participation process.

If this were put in place, I bet the IETF is turned into a ghost-town by the end of the week.


As I don't understand the intention here, I can't suggest alternative
text, assuming any replacement text is necessary at all.
