 I do not think so.  For IPv6 manual page replacement, the manual
 pages in question (e.g. getaddrinfo(3)) were derived from RFC 2292,
 RFC 2553, and so on, which have almost the same copyright notice.
 I do not mean copyright violation of RFC 3667 itself.

 The copyright notice does not explicitly state who is permitted
 to create a derivative work and what a derivative work is.
 RFC 3978 (revised version of RFC 3667) explains what rights
 are permitted to whom in detail, and according to it, we cannot
 write any RFC derived manual pages since IETF and ISOC have
 non-exclusive right to create such derivative works.

 I think the situation is the same.  Please correct me
 if I am missing something.
