Examples are good for this: Actual document title may be: Enhancing TCP Over Satellite Channels using Standard Mechanisms. The "name of work" or "label" or what we may call it, may be: RFC 2488, BCP 0028 These labels are not protected by trademark or copyright, as far as I believe, but in copying conditions, it can be requested to remove them anyway, since labeling another work as RFC 2488 would be confusing. This does not prevent anyone from writing a completely new document and calling it RFC 2488 though. Copying conditions can't help with that. > P.S.: Please don't reply to me Cc:ing the list, as I didn't ask it. > Reply to the list only, instead, I'd rather avoid receiving replies > twice. Thanks. Cc:ing the author is normal procedures, you should consider using a header like Mail-Followup-To to avoid copies.
