With hat:

Wrong answer.

In the IETF, as a group, we look at information made available by the
rightholders (to the IETF, or, when there are other SDOs involved, at
their disclosure system and/or their patent policy).  Those of us who feel
qualified can also look at objectively verifiable (by anyone!) data such
as patent expiration dates.

We do not look at known, rumored, or unknown licensing deals.  We do not
solicit such information.

Let's stay out of antitrust trouble.
