Re: [IPsec] IPR statement for draft-detienne-ikev2-recovery

Hi Paul,

I am afraid you are mistaken. Yoav, Yaron, Pratima and I had a discussion about the draft's IPR back in Dublin in July 2008. We told back then that we would have rights released. The process takes its own time but as far as Pratima and I are concerned, we did due diligence.

Will you share your assumptions directly with us next time ?

thanks,

	fred

I also note that at least one of the co-authors on the named draft was not informed of the IPR; in my opinion, this is particularly inappropriate.
