Hi,
Some small changes to the IPR boilerplate. You have some time before you
MUST use the new boilerplate, but I suggest you start to cut over now.

Subject: Update to Internet-Draft and RFC Boilerplate
A small update to BCP 78 was recently approved by the IESG as
RFC 4748, to update the boilerplate (i.e., standard legal text) in
RFCs and Internet-Drafts to recognize the IETF Trust as a rights
holder, instead of ISOC.
The actual boilerplate changes are given below this message.
Starting as soon as reasonably possible, all authors of Internet-
Drafts are requested to use the new boilerplate. The RFC
Editor will in any case be inserting it in all RFCs issued from
2006-11-01. (The rights held by ISOC in older RFCs will be
administratively transferred to the IETF Trust.)
The public ID Nits checker already accepts I-Ds with old or new
boilerplate.
The Secretariat has started accepting I-Ds with old or new boilerplate
XML2RFC version 1.32 will generate the new boilerplate.
Users of I-D templates are requested to update them appropriately.
http://www.ietf.org/ID-Checklist.html and
http://www.ietf.org/ietf/1id-guidelines.html are being updated.
Starting December, the public ID Nits checker will issue warnings for
old boilerplate.
Starting February 2007, the Secretariat will refuse
the old boilerplate in Internet-Drafts.
We are sorry for the inconvenience, but this change cannot
be avoided.
