But what is the status of the IPR claims of patents which were > issued on previous drafts? Hi Jehan, As I understand it (IANAL etc.), in general the IETF and its working groups do not take any official position on the validity or appropriateness of IPR claims made with regard to IETF specifications (including Internet-Drafts under discussion by a working group), nor on the licensing terms associated with such IPR claims. According to IETF rules, individuals who are aware of IPR claims related to work in which they are participating (e.g., as document editors or list discussants) are required to state that they are aware of the existence of such claims (which might even be claims made by third parties not involved in the work) -- not necessarily to disclose the nature of the IPR itself, but at least to state awareness of the existence of such claims. Also according to IETF rules, the working group chairs are required to make the group aware of notifications and disclosures that are submitted in relation to the work happening in the group. The purpose of drawing this information to the attention of the working group participants is to allow each person to make their own determination of the validity of the IPR claims, and to assess the license terms that are presented. I hope that this message helps to clarify the role of the working group, and the responsibilities of each working group participant, in relation to IPR claims.
