Preparing an IEEE conference accepted manuscript for arxiving What exactly do I need to do when arxiving a accepted manuscript to an IEEE conference? Which license to select on arxiv? Do I need to add the reference/doi not only to the arxiv metadata but also the document itself?



Background.

I've a paper that has been accepted at an IEEE conference. After I've received the reviews and acceptance notice, I was asked to incorporate changes and include a copyright notice that was provided to me, something like 


  123-1-1234-5678-0/12/$31.00 c 2015 IEEE


I assume this last pdf then is the so-called postprint or accepted manuscript.

I want to post this on arxiv and wondered what I need to do. It seems the accepted answer to the following question does not really match my case:
Conditions for uploading IEEE publications to ArXiv.
Also it somewhat doesn't match
An FAQ on IEEE Policy Regarding
Authors Rights to Post Accepted Versions of Their Articles:


  Does the policy affect how authors post their articles on preprint
  servers such as ArXiv? Yes. The IEEE recognizes that many authors
  share their unpublished articles on public sites. Once articles have
  been accepted for publication by IEEE, authors are required to post an
  IEEE copyright notice on their preprints. Upon publication, authors
  must replace the preprints with either 1) the full citation to the
  IEEE works with Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) or 2) the accepted
  versions only (not the IEEE-published versions) with the DOI. IEEE
  journals will make available to each author the accepted version of
  the article that the author can post that includes the DOI, IEEE
  copyright notice, and a notice indicating the article has been
  accepted for publication by IEEE. IEEE conference authors are free to
  post their own version of their articles, as accepted by an IEEE
  conference.


Which in turn is somewhat different from the information provided in
An FAQ on Intellectual Property Rights for IEEE Authors:


  Can an author post his manuscript on a preprint server such as ArXiv?
  Yes. The IEEE recognizes that many authors share their unpublished
  manuscripts on public sites. Once manuscripts have been accepted for
  publication by IEEE, an author is required to post an IEEE copyright
  notice on his preprint. Upon publication, the author must replace the
  preprint with either 1) the full citation to the IEEE work with
  Digital Object Identifiers (DOI) or a link to the paper’s abstract in
  IEEE Xplore, or 2) the accepted version only (not the IEEEpublished
  version), including the IEEE copyright notice and full citation, with
  a link to the final, published paper in IEEE Xplore.

Question:


  I am having trouble understanding the policies on what exact
  information needs to be included in an accepted manuscript before
  posting it to arxiv.
  
  Given an accepted manuscript at an IEEE conference, am I right in
  assuming that I need to include the following?
  (a) the full reference of the published version,
  (b) the doi linking to ieeeXplore,
  (c) the copyright notice as shown in 8.1.9.B, http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/rights/rights_policies.html
  
  If yes, is there a standard procedure how to include those in a
  standard IEEEtran tex or does one just add them in any way convenient?
  If no, could you please clarify?
  
  Note, however, that the accepted manuscript of a conference paper
  sometimes already contains a copyright notice of the following form
  "123-1-1234-5678-0/12/$31.00 c 2015 IEEE" i.e. the accepted
  manuscript, the version finally sent to ieee for publication and prior
  to copyediting etc already contains a copyright notice that is
  different from the one mentioned above. Would this one need to be
  replaced by the other one or which exact notice would need to be
  included?


Response:


  Sorry for the delay in response. To the best of my knowledge there is
  no standard format to provide the information. You would need to
  provide the copyright notice as shown in 8.1.9.B from the PSPB
  Operations Manual:
  
  “© © 20xx IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted. Permission
  from IEEE must be obtained for all other uses, in any current or
  future media, including reprinting/republishing this material for
  advertising or promotional purposes, creating new collective works,

  copyrighted component of this work in other works.”


Not sure this really clarifies the situation..?
