- Description:
- In his mail http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-w3process/2013Sep/0018.html Ian raised a couple of questions about the references to the Patent Policy:
* 7.4.1.a and 7.4.1.b: "Publishing the First Public Working Draft
triggers a patent disclosure request,"
Please change this to "Publishing the First Public Working Draft
triggers a Call for Exclusions" and refer to section 4 of the
policy.
Here's an example of one:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html/2013Sep/0028
* 7.5: "A document published as a Working Group Note does not imply
any licensing requirements, unless work is resumed and it is
subsequently published as a W3C Recommendation. " This comes
close to sounding like an IPR rule. Please delete.
