And if it becomes of "current interest to an IETF WG" after the
six month window? Or if it is of interest to a non IETF WG, e.g.
a legally oriented person doing IPR work? Can the IETF make
"non-valid" collections of drafts available for prior art searches
as an IETF function, esp. given the language in the boilerplate?
