And to start off the comments, I wanted tell my personal opinion about this.
First, I have not been extremely happy with either the h&b or the
3932bis document, as some people who have been reading the various lists
may gather. However, I think they were already good enough to be shipped
before the changes to 3932bis. (And indeed, h&b has been shipped by the
IAB.) And I can't get that excited about debates regarding the role of
the various boilerplate texts, because I suspect that the only people
reading them are the ones who are going to respond to this thread :-)
I do think though that additional information at the level of "This RFC
describes FOO. A standardized version of FOO can be found from RFC
NNNN." is useful. I think -07 version of the 3932bis is an improvement
over the previous one, and should be approved.
