Copyright status of early RFCs

2006-04-06 14:40:25
A friend of mine wants to include copies of some early RFCs in a book.

My understanding is that anything published before 1976 without a
copyright notice, which would presumably include RFCs up through about
number 700, is in the public domain.

Does the IETF or IAB or RFC Editor take a position on this?
