Tom, Thanks much for your comments. We will update the draft shortly with your suggested texts.

Rodney The obvious place, to me, to keep such an item would be IASA and I have e-mailed them but have yet to get a response. I expect that their response will be that they are not interested. The IETF cares that it has the IPR necessary to do its current and future work and that grant of IPR allows the authors to grant further IPR to other parties as long as that does not restrict the rights granted to the IETF, as RFC5378 describes, so while I would like to be able to see the grants that you have made without having to ask the IEEE, I suspect that that view will not be shared. So ignore my suggestion about the IETF having a copy. Just to state the obvious, I do think that Appendix A is a useful and valuable piece of work.
