The open source community definitely wants to be able to guarantee to its users the ability to take text or code from an IETF standard and use that text or code in derivatives of that standard. Parts of the open source community want to be able to claim that that standard is the real unmodified thing. Other parts of the open source community would be happy changing the name of the work and clearly indicating what it is. Areas where a discussion might be useful would be to explain why the open source community wants to do this etc. --Sam _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
