Re: IPR language in IASA BCP

[Harald Tveit Alvestrand <harald@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

On re-reading this, I can't figure out how to make it scan properly - the 
reason being that both paragraphs you point at talk about "right" to use, 
while "fully-paid-up", "royalty-free" and "irrevocable" typically applies 
to one particular type of rights assignment - licensing.

Leslie has already pointed out the need to start in on an IPR management 
guidebook for the IASA, and the transition team has started that work - so 
I think we should move that issue there.

Makes sense?
