I don't what made this click in my brain now rather than 20 years ago, but think about this extract from our I-D boilerplate**:
"Internet-Drafts are working documents of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Note that other groups may also distribute working documents as Internet-Drafts."
My suggestion.
Internet-Drafts are documents submitted according to the 'NOTE WELL' terms of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as described in RFC-FOO. They are working documents of the IETF, IRTF and other groups.
I would like open source and other communities to be encouraged to make more use of Internet Drafts. The more design data is captured under NOTE WELL terms, the better.
