% I think that this process is missing a chance to deal with one of the % confusions about the IETF's process - if the submission process included % a click-through agreement covering the IPR (copyright & patent % disclosure) requirements it would eliminate any possibility for the % submitter to claim that they did not know or for the submitter to say % that some other text in the document negates the boilerplate - this is a % proposal that has come up a few times over the last few years, if we % create a tool for people to use to submit IDs it would seem to be a good % time to implement such a process if there is a desire to ensure that the proper text is include with each ID, then this is a reasonable request. it may not be sufficent however. % I will say that I'm not fond of the idea of requiring that WG chairs % pre-approve the submission of -00 WG IDs, as a WG chair I'd rather be % able to enforce me getting a chance to review the document first - I'm % fine with letting a WG chair be able to pre approve but I do not think % it should be the only way that the process should be able to work actually, i think that the WG chairs are the -wrong- people to ensure that the right text is part of each -00 IDs. you really want proper legal review of each -00 id to ensure that the copyright text is correct/intact. % % Scott --bill _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
