Is this means that anyone can use the contents of the IDs stored at the ietf repository !!!!

Anyone who is contributing their work to the standards process can include derivative works of other items contributed to the standards process (caveat the information below).

So what is the copyright text included at the beginning and the end of each ID !!!!

It specifically allows for derivative works. See BCP 78 (RFC 5378) section 5.3.c <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__tools.ietf.org_html_bcp78-23section-2D5.3&d=DwIBAg&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=G9v8uCSSQhCmpw7ItG0r2g&m=xw2owL1pvrj-D8u26FGQ1BC-2n2MMDhl20vaNK-KeI0&s=dEktUwQeS7J1Rkpya9b0UPQDJ8icpq6iSARtDCLpesY&e= >. By including that copyright statement (and not including any other limitations), the author has granted the right to make those derivative works.

Does this includes applying what is included inside the ID without contacting the draft authors ?!

Yes. An author is allowed to limit the right to make derivative works (see section 6 <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__tools.ietf.org_html_bcp78-23section-2D6&d=DwIBAg&c=LFYZ-o9_HUMeMTSQicvjIg&r=G9v8uCSSQhCmpw7ItG0r2g&m=xw2owL1pvrj-D8u26FGQ1BC-2n2MMDhl20vaNK-KeI0&s=in3WGSptqxc0Jhq5oauChH-NleGLvBijzngWg4U4W8E&e= >, but I do not see this limitation in draft-omar-nep, which means you have granted the right to make derivative works to the IETF Trust, and the IETF Trust grants the right to include derivative works in new contributions to the standards process to other authors. There is no requirement for contacting the original draft author.
