Hey all,

Two IPR disclosures have been filed with regard to draft-ietf-geopriv- 
arch, one from Qualcomm and one from Enterasys:
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1394/>
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1402/>

The Qualcomm disclosure relates to an unpublished US patent  
application, so no information is available from the USPTO website.   
Robert and I have asked Qualcomm for further technical details, but  
have not received any.  The Enterasys disclosure relates to three  
issued patents.

The question for the group is whether the WG is comfortable moving  
these documents forward given these IPR disclosures.  If you have  
thoughts on this question, please send them to the list no later than  
Monday, 18 Oct.

Thanks,
--Richard
