First, in Section 5.4, "Copyright Notice (required for all IETF
Documents)", it says:
(Normally placed at the end of the IETF Document.)
"Copyright (C) The Internet Society (year). This document is
subject to the rights, licenses and restrictions contained in RFC
XXXX and except as set forth therein, the authors retain all their
rights."
And I see:
a. in MIB modules, PIB modules and similar material commonly
extracted from IETF Documents, except for material that is being
placed under IANA maintenance, the following abbreviated notice
shall be included in the body of the material that will be
extracted in lieu of the notices otherwise required by Section 5:
==> "Copyright (C) <year> The Internet Society. This version of
this MIB module is part of RFC XXXX; see the RFC itself for
full legal notices."
In the current MIB modules we use
"Copyright (C) The Internet Society (year). This version of
this MIB module is part of RFC XXXX; see the RFC itself for
full legal notices."
So the line at the arrow is not in sync with current practice, and also
not in sync with section 5.4. Just a nit I guess, but might
as well get it consistent.
