How are RFCs licensed? I always thought the XSF policy was very

the IETF's. Can Debian ship RFCs?
No. I remember removing one from EXTRA_DIST in an upstream project so
that the maintainer of the corresponding Debian package wouldn't
have to
repackage our tarball after every release. IIRC, the problem was that
the license doesn't allow one to redistribute modified RFCs.
Maybe Debian should change *their* policy, then. If we change for
them, what happens when some other people come along and tell us that
the new license doesn't match their needs?
