This looks and feels a lot like the IPR claim Yahoo! made against DomainKeys (RFC4870).  The difference here, I think, is that Yahoo! also offered into the public domain an open source implementation of DK.  Does RIM plan to do something like that too?

Otherwise, I'm concerned that we will be contributing, presumably for "free", support in development of this toward the standards track where the beneficiary is RIM.  Not a very "open" approach to an open standards body.  I personally wouldn't be inclined to be very supportive.

Hopefully RIM can give us some good assurances that this is all on the level.  Or give us all free Blackberries.
