The second quote is valid in most cases, though we've had some

The following will be discussed in the DMARC BoF:
"a mechanism for protecting the <display-name> portion of the
RFC5322.From field"
My guess is that it might be educational. :-)
I read the second quote as meaning that a WG session is not a how-to
or a tutorial. It might be help people understand if it is explained
during the orientation session.
But the first one is just plain wrong. Is this from RFC 3184? Many
of the first time IETFers are
Yes.
