Regardless of the impact, what's this with Qualcomm bringing this IPR 
declaration 6 years after the document became an RFC *WHILE* being 
the WG chair of this group at the time of _every_ version of this 
draft and while the RFC was being published?

I believe there were also Qualcomm (employed) contributing members of 
this WG through the lifecycle of the draft during its creation and 
editing as well.

I believe Qualcomm employed the responsible AD for this WG too at this time.

this has me scratching my head wrt the very existence of the NOTE 
WELL everybody is supposed to live within the IETF.

BTW - I don't know if this is exactly like the ALU case Russ just 
posted about, but it's pretty darn close, and should seriously be looked at.
