Hi, Another update (the last one I plan before the IETF). I've added a list of principles (with thanks to Eliot for the idea and a few off-list messages) and otherwise tried to respond to the other actionable comments and clean up the logical flow:
* Added list of principles near the front * Highlighted relationship to existing practice * Moved discussion of copying between RFCs into main text * Removed remark about prior art * Clarified that author/editor descriptions are only indicative * Clarified that the guidance applies specifically to the final draft sent to the RPC, not to how the sausage was made Regards/Ngā mihi Brian Carpenter -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: I-D Action: draft-carpenter-rswg-authoring-ethics-05.txt Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2026 13:50:07 -0700 From: [email protected] Reply-To: [email protected] To: [email protected] Internet-Draft draft-carpenter-rswg-authoring-ethics-05.txt is now available. Title: Guidelines for Assignment of RFC Authorship Author: Brian E. Carpenter Name: draft-carpenter-rswg-authoring-ethics-05.txt Pages: 15 Dates: 2026-06-20 Abstract: This document describes ethical guidelines for assigning authorship in RFC documents, including guidelines for the use of artificial intelligence during document preparation, and for inclusion of material from other documents. It also discusses the related issues of acknowledgements, editors and contributors. The various RFC streams are expected to apply these guidelines, and possibly define their own variations, which will have priority.
