http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bradner-author-contributors-00.txt 
is more interesting.

This is a distribution license - which is nice, because lots of RFCs aren't
presently distributable at all - but it's not a license to modify, so that's
not very useful.

There have been many debates on the freeness of IETF RFCs so here is
an opportunity to influence it.
--- Begin Message ---
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.


Title   : Extracting RFCs
Author(s)   : S. Bradner
Filename: draft-bradner-rfc-extracts-01.txt
Pages   : 3
Date: 2005-7-8

Many people have expressed a desire to extract material from IETF
   RFCs for use in documentation, textbooks, on-line help systems, and
   for similar uses. In addition, some IETF RFCs contain MIBs and other
   types of program code that could be compiled. This document proposes
   an update to RFC RFC3978 to explicitly permit extracting material for
   a wide range of uses.

A URL for this Internet-Draft is:
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bradner-rfc-extracts-01.txt

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username
"anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in,
type "cd internet-drafts" and then
"get draft-bradner-rfc-extracts-01.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html 
or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt


Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-bradner-rfc-extracts-01.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.


Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
