I would like to know if we should keep this additional license chapter
or not ..? Please advice, if you have any input..

if we keep the extra chapter, it will delay the IETF process.

It seems to be related to debian, that doesn't like the fact that not
everyone is allowed to modify these documents. If it's that much

Guys, both the Vorbis RTP and the Ogg media types RFCs have this

Speex draft, this is not it.
