The proposed fix is to update Section 3.8 as follows.  Changed lines
are marked with rev-bars in the right-hand margin.

3.8.  Copyright Notices

   IETF MIB documents MUST contain the copyright notices specified in
   Section 4.3 of RFC 2223bis [RFC2223bis] and Section 10.4 Bullet (C)
   of RFC 2026 [RFC2026].  Authors and reviewers MUST check make sure
   that the correct year is inserted into these notices.  In addition,
   the DESCRIPTION clause of the MODULE-IDENTITY invocation of each MIB
   module that will appear in the published RFC must contain a pointer
   to the copyright notices in the RFC.  A template suitable for
   inclusion in an Internet Draft, appropriate for MIB modules other     |
   those that are to be maintained by the IANA, is as follows:           |

          DESCRIPTION
            " [ ... ]

            Copyright (C) The Internet Society (date).  This version
            of this MIB module is part of RFC yyyy;  see the RFC
            itself for full legal notices."
   -- RFC Ed.: replace yyyy with actual RFC number & remove this note

   A template suitable for MIB modules that are to be maintained by the  |
   IANA is as follows:                                                   |
                                                                         |
          DESCRIPTION                                                    |
            " [ ... ]                                                    |
                                                                         |
            Copyright (C) The Internet Society (date).  The initial      |
            version of this MIB module was published in RFC yyyy;        |
            for full legal notices see the RFC itself or see:            |
            http://www.ietf.org/copyrights/ianamib.html.";                |
   -- RFC Ed.: replace yyyy with actual RFC number & remove this note    |
                                                                         |
   In each case the current year is inserted in place of the word        |
   "date".                                                               |
