 Subject: IANA document copyright?

 I've found the "rfc-copyright-story" document, and I suspect that it also
 applies to the IANA documents. However, I haven't been able to find any
 concrete statement on this.
 .
 Could you please clarify?
 .
 The reason for this is that I'm considering making a package from the IANA docs
 (and another from the more important RFCs) for the Debian GNU/Linux
 distribution, and they insist (quite rightly, I think) on including a statement
 as to the copyright status in every such package.
 .
 Thank you!

 Kai,
 .
 To clarify: IANA publishes its documents through RFCs (see RFC 1700), therefore
 the rfc-copyright-story document applies. Thanks.
