Re: [Emu] WG adoption call for draft-arkko-eap-aka-pfs

["Dr. Pala" <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

I am in favor of addressing the issue of PFS in 3GPP authentication - it 
is important work that moves cellular network authentication towards 
more modern approaches and more compatible with IETF technologies.

This said, I am concerned about the fact that the IPR is not marked as 
Royalty-Free, therefore I am not in favor of adopting it if the IPR 
restrictions (fees) are not removed (please let me know if I am 
mis-interpreting the IPR declaration). I think I missed this point 
(maybe the jet lag, but it might not have been clear to the room).

As a possible way forward (if IPR restrictions are not modified), we 
could work on something different that is not encumbered by patents 
restrictions. However, for this, we would need to see the specific 
claims of the application...

Cheers,
Max
