IANAL, but my understanding is that one will be able to cite MAAWG's
RFC in other works, thereby /using/ those statements without actually
incorporating protected material literally.  Copyright should protect
the wording, not the technique.  Taking up terminology and quoting
small snippets of text should be fair use:  J.D. himself, wearing a
IETF hat, is drafting a Standard Track I-D (marf-as) that uses the
CFBL BCP that way.
