Section 10 about "copying conditions" mentions "without 
royalty".  There was a message to the CODEC mailing list about the 
Qualcomm IPR disclosure.  The Licensing declaration in the Huawei IPR 
disclosure do not mention royalty-free.  Was that taken into account 
by the authors for the statement in Section 10?

Could the authors please clarify what they mean by "the work" in the following:

   "The authors agree to grant third parties the irrevocable right to
    copy, use and distribute the work (excluding Code Components
    available under the simplified BSD license)"
