Re: Adminrest: created IPR

Folks,

Good stuff here, but...

I'd like to put in a plug for making it a mandatory* principle
that the IETF end up in no-restrictions possession of data contents from 
the databases and websites from any contractors.

This is different from specifics about what tools are used, open source
etc, and what the public availability of the data is.

So the text below still needs to be teased a little, esp. because it's mixing 
the tools and the contents.

What about this text, (added to 2.2.6):

   "As a matter of principle the IAOC and IAD should ensure that any
   contracts for IASA clearly designate that any software, databases,
   and websites developed should be available to the IETF with no
   restriction by the contractor.  Software should be open source and
   data should be made available to the IETF in machine-readable
   format, also in cases where it may be inadvisable to make the data
   openly available."


this works for me (my only problem is stylistic - it's somewhat long for a 
principle, so may fit better in the "details" sections, if a place can be 
found for it).
