Hi all,

The IPR disclosure related to RFC 5961 is documented e.g. in datatracker for a long time (since year 2004) and it should thus be well-known. RFC 5961 mostly affects MAY-12 in 793bis, and MAY-12 is not mandatory to implement.

At least I have no means to verify whether patents related to RFC 5961 apply to the wording in 793bis, or not.

As document shepherd, I plan to record the potential applicability of the IPR disclosure related to RFC 5961 in my write-up for 793bis.

In my understanding, the TCPM working group is aware of the IPR disclosure related to RFC 5961, and the TCPM working group is fine with the currently proposed text in 793bis related to RFC 5961.

Yet, I'd like to double check that this is indeed TCPM consensus, just to be on the safe side.

Michael
