I dont think this is correct. The CLDR is not documented by any RFC. This 
is a copyrighted private project. There are other projects with comparable 
aims and different needs. The needs of the CLDR are parts of the needs 
calling a the BPC 047 review. In not quoting CLDR the current draft implies 
that the CLDR needs are satisfied what puts it ad advantage over other 
projects or projects studies the needs of which are not satisfied.

I fully understand that CLDR IPRs should be respected, the same as other 
projects. But the Internet standard process calls for protected solutions 
to be considered after open ones.
