Re: IPR language in IASA BCP

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <harald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On rescanning (and rescanning) the text, I find that "irrevocable" is 
already in there (!), but I have some problems with where to fit "fully 
paid up", since it is really only relevant to licensing, while most of the 
text talks about "rights".

There is one paragraph that does talk about licensing, in paragraph 7 of 
section 3.1, and we can add it there:

       It is preferred that Developed Software be
       provided and licensed for IASA and IETF use in source
       code form, with no ongoing payments.

No binding promises, but our preference is clear.
Makes sense?
