Both rfc-editor.org and www.ietf.org still distribute RFC 1952 with the following copyright statement and license: ------------------------------------------ Copyright (c) 1996 L. Peter Deutsch Permission is granted to copy and distribute this document for any purpose and without charge, including translations into other languages and incorporation into compilations, provided that the copyright notice and this notice are preserved, and that any substantive changes or deletions from the original are clearly marked. A pointer to the latest version of this and related documentation in HTML format can be found at the URL <ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/png/documents/zlib/zdoc-index.html>. ------------------------------------------ The gcrypt license header says: The copyright on RFCs, and consequently the function below, are supposedly also retroactively claimed by the Internet Society (according to rfc-edi...@rfc-editor.org), with the following copyright notice: [...] I assume this refers to the mail quoted in https://wiki.debian.org/NonFreeIETFDocuments regarding RFC 1510. - However the situation with 1510 differs signigicantly from RFC 1952. The former is distributet without copyrighth statement and license-headers, while the other one has both. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
