While reviewing the documents I tried to determine how the 4 streams
currently defined in RFC4844 fit into the framework.
Although the stream is not specifically mentioned it is clear that the
incoming rights document applies to the IETF Stream.
To me it is clear that a contribution to the IAB is explicitly bound
by the rules (including the No Duty to Publish rule, that allows for
confidential information to be supplied to the IAB), so are
contributions from the IAB, i.e. IAB stream document. I conclude this
from the fact that "IAB" is part of the IETF under the definition in
1.e. However, I may be over-interpreting, and the status of the
incoming rights for the IAB stream is also not captured.
The independent stream document are clearly excluded by section 4 of
the document.
It is not quite clear where the IRTF stream document live. This could
be fixed in a document which defines the IRTF stream.
I would think that the document would gain in clarity if it explicitly
ties the incoming rights to the streams as defined in RFC4844 and also
explicitly calls out that if new streams would be defined those should
specifically define if and how rights are transfered to the IETF Trust.
