Re: Effective vs intended handling of patent encumbrance in IETF wg and IESG



Dear all:

If it may assist ipr wg participants in focusing on the wg issues, if any in the present discussion thread, here is a clarification:

The observations I made about draft-ietf-dnsext-rollover-requirements *are completely independent from* draft-moreau-srvloc-dnssec-priming, or the IPR disclosure for the latter.

Like Harald, I'm lost when reading comments suggesting otherwise.

Regards,

I must admit I'm lost here.

All the dates I can find are:

- November 20, 2006: draft-ietf-dnsext-rollover-requirements-04 published
- February 26, 2007: draft-koch-dnsop-resolver-priming published
- March 19, 2007: DNS resolver priming discussed in Prague @DNSOP
- April 19, 2007: Patent request filed in Canada
- April 20, 2007: draft-moreau-srvloc-dnssec-priming-00 is published
- May 9, 2007: draft-moreau-srvloc-dnssec-priming-01 is published
- May 10, 2007: Thierry Moreau informally discloses existence of IPR
- June 5, 2007: Thierry Moreau formally discloses existence of patent applciation


Unless time travel is involved, I cannot see any way the current existence of the patent application filed in April 2007 can have influenced the draft published in November 2006.

What have I failed to understand?
