Re: [rtcweb] Finishing up the Video Codec document, MTI (again, still, sorry)

[Roman Shpount <[e-mail]>]

There were a lot of arguments here about the Nokia IPR declaration
regarding VP8. IANAL, but typically there is a very simple way to determine
the validity of the IPR claim. It comes down to one simple question -- Have
the party claiming IPR violation filed the law suite? If not, their claims
most likely do not justify the court filing fees in their own eyes. Mozilla
and Google have been shipping browsers with VP8 codec support for several
years already and Nokia did not do a single thing to stop this. If Nokia is
serious about their IPR claims, they should take the alleged violators to
court. At least this way there is going to be a definitive decision
regarding the validity of these claims.
