I'm puzzled by this message

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ipr-announce/current/msg00447.html

Its date is Tue, 26 Apr 2011 09:01:41 -0700 (PDT), and it talks about
a submission on 2011-04-10.  However, the given datatracker URL
(1530) results in a 404 Not Found error, and the mentioned draft-
ietf-dkim-base-11 doesn't seem to exist (RFC 4871 appears right after
version -10).  What the heck do they do?

The most recent IPR seems thus to be `920' of January 2008, whose text
leaves so much to be desired when compared to, say, the "reasonable
non-discriminatory terms" made explicit by Cisco's or Huawei's IPRs.
