Subject: Regarding RIM's recent IPR disclosures


With regard to the recent discussion on the IETF-Discussion list regarding RIM's recent IPR disclosures, I understand the community's concerns regarding the timeliness of the disclosure.  As I'm sure everyone can understand, as employees of companies we are bound by confidentiality obligations and, in addition, cannot always control our company's internal processes.  The community's concerns have been brought to the attention of my employer and they are in the process of evaluating the concerns.  My company has asked for your patience while they take the time to evaluate the concerns and determine if there is an appropriate course of action in this matter to alleviate the concerns of the community.

Your understanding is appreciated

Best regards

Andrew Allen
