Thomas,

	The verbage you quote above is standard boilerplate that I copied
from ietf.org, specifically from:
	http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.txt

	The online material at www.ietf.org gives that as 1 of 3 choices that
one must select from.  If you find those words confusing, then you all 
on the
IESG should put new boilerplate out for folks to select from that says
"other than to publish as an Internet-Draft or RFC".

	Extreme certainly desires for this to be published by RFC Editor as an
Informational RFC with a no-derivative-rights clause.
