Until "7f" that all sounds good, but I'm not sure about "7f":

That also sounds right for published RFCs.  But apparently
it's not limited to RFCs and affects *all* Contributions.

SNIP

Apparently there is an exception.  Maybe that's perfectly
clear in your text, and I just don't see it (IANAL).

I agree with Frank, the disparity needs to be resolved. After looking at both documents, I couldn't see a way to reconcile the two.

Also, petty point, but it would make sense to strike "for the avoidance of doubt" from 7f. I don't see what, if anything, it adds.
