I do not know of any IPR pertaining to the wide-communities draft.

[Speaking as an author of this draft.]
I believe that IDR should also continue with the generic as4octet community.
While the issue of communities in the form of two 4-octet numbers is known
and is desired to support the AS4:AS4 mapping, the generic draft covers
cases that can be readily accommodated in AS4:2-byte number case.  Unlike
the wide communities draft, this uses existing the BGP extended community
and is easy to implement.
