You mean like accepting IP from individuals who the IETF knows have no legal 
claim to those IP's or who cannot possibly represent the legal interests of 
their "Sponsors"? I agree - and not just the organization but those 
individuals seated in those roles and their Sponsor's too.

The problem is that much of the IETF's boiler plate resembles a large block 
of Jarlsburg Cheese. Holes through it everywhere.

Wrong - Everything the IETF does, and how the processes work MUST be 
documented and fully disclosed.
