Right, but that's not a policy. To be clearer, what I was saying was that "RFCs are in English" is not documented /as a policy/.
Right, it needs to be. The boilerplate and IPR clauses (relevant to current events!) are in English, so participants must understand business English. The Note Well also advises limiting slang so that the English is easy to understand (whether American or British or something else).
The attack surface is worse than that, really. This is a minimal measure that is easy to write.
Anyone can submit an I-D in Portuguese or Thai and slap restrictive IPR on it. But what does it say? Good luck. Maybe Paul Hoffman is trying to avoid this part...
