Agreed, but isn't example code typically written by
individual
contributors ? The Chairs won't tolerate it if WGs waste
time
with legalese. Most examples I could name without looking
are
individual contributions, not written by a committ^WWG.

They'll get over it, the examples in old RFCs and elsewhere
use
various licenses. For independent submissions that
apparently
will stay as is. For anything else we'd get say two
standard
choices, and the exceptions for special cases.
If WGs waste time it's probably about exceptional cases, and
with only one standard choice there might be more
exceptions.
