Re: Proposed Revisions to the IETF Trust Legal Provisions (TLP)

There is an explicit list of what is automatically covered as code.
After discussion, that list does not (did not, the last time I checked) include pseudo-code. Document authors are free to mark their pseudo-code using the code marker if they want it treated as code.

The problem, as far as I am concerned, is that pseudo-code is not well-defined, and therefore including it in the general list, we would have ambiguity as to what was or was not covered.

Yours,
Joel

Is pseudocode covered by the terms of redistribution of source code in section 4 ?
The last line of the list of code component types is "classical programming code".
Does this imply a requirement that the code can be parsed by some means ?
