Given that we've historically weeded out the contributor-list on a
document to "four or less", even if there were really dozens of
"contributors" at the alleged insistence of the RFC Editor, I don't
see how any older document or even a majority of new documents-in-
progress could be adapted to the new rules.
This appears to require complete abandonment of all previous works
and "clean room" rewrites under the new terms.
Even in this worse case scenario (which clearly won't be true in all
cases), I think that that is only true for documents that need to be
licensed outside of the IETF process.
