Technical Summary

  This document clarifies and updates a single sentence in RFC 3979.
  Specifically, when 3rd party IPR disclosures are made, the intention
  is that the IETF Executive Director notify the IPR holder that a 3rd
  party disclosure has been filed, and to ask the IPR holder whether
  they have any disclosure that needs to be made, per applicable
  RFC3979 rules.

Working Group Summary

  The working group process provided an interesting discussion of past
  history of the handling of IPR disclosures, but there was no real
  controversy.

Document Quality

  The document has been reviewed by Harald Alvestrand.

Personnel
