As stated in BCP 79

That was in BCP 78. And section 4 makes that argument moot for
Khaled, don't you agree?
At the top of his document, Khaled included:
Internet Engineering Task Force
Intended status: Standards Track
I don't see how it could be much clearer that it was submitted as a
contribution to the IETF and therefore is subject to that line in BCP 78
and the IESG statement. A different boilerplate could have been used
that didn't include those lines and could have added disclaimers to the
copyright statement. But this is what the author included in the
document.
And as Nick pointed out, this process was explained in response to
Khaled's request 3 years ago. The rules haven't changed since then.
