General comment:The US Patent office procedures are such that there is a delay between filing and public disclosure of applications. That may be applicable here.
the IETF procedures specifically ask folks to tell us about such patent applications, if they think they apply. However, we understand that we can not get details at that point.
If we treat such disclosure as a priori blocked of WG consideration of a document, we invite denial of service attacks on our work. If this document were being last called, then the question would be significantly more complicated. But we are only at WG adoption, as a starting point for work on a topic.

I'm reluctant to take any stance on this draft without more information on what the patent claims. Additionally, I'd like to see a clear statement as to what this draft says for which the existing draft-ietf-sidr-roa-validation is insufficient. Rob
