Hi, Section 1 (Definitions), subsection k says the following: > Without limiting the generality of the > foregoing, acting as a working group chair or Area Director > constitutes "Participating" in all activities of the relevant > working group or area.

Since then we’ve gathered a lot of experience, and we’d like to update the RFC with that experience. This isn’t a revolution of the IETF IPR approach, it is mostly about clarification, better documentation, and recognising some other new RFCs and changes. But the document itself has changed quite a lot and structured differently than RFC 3979 was. > > Some of the main issues (such as how to define participation) were discussed in the IETF-87 meeting, but there are also a number of other changes in this document.

And thanks for the comments that some of you have already sent after the document was published; we’ve observed them and will make them part of the feedback from the Last Call. > > The document is available here: > > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-bradner-rfc3979bis/ > https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bradner-rfc3979bis-08 > > Jari Arkko (as the responsible AD for this document) >
