The committee is also the first "Patent Pool" management institution in China. Relying on the independent corporate association “Beijing Haidian District Digital Audio and Video Standard Promotion Center” registered in the Civil Affairs Bureau of Haidian District of Beijing City, it set up one-stop, low-cost patent authorization principles and management rules [4] for patent technologies included in the standard, as the expert committee and the main business decision-making institution of the promotion center. The royalty for the first generation AVS standard is only charged one-yuan per terminal, and the same mode will be adopted for the second generation, to charge a small amount of royalty only for the terminal, excluding the contents, as well as software services on the Internet. I'm not sure this would be eligible to be in Fedora. Asking FE-Legal opinion on this.
