All - The IAOC is pleased to announce that we have reached substantial agreement with both CNRI and ISOC on the founding document for an IETF Trust. The IETF Trust is a private legal construct (in this case established under the laws of Virginia, USA) allowing assets (in this case, intellectual property rights and other property) to be held and administered for the benefit of the IETF and hence the Internet standards process. The IETF Trust document, a model version of an IPR License (based on the potential Service Agreement with NeuStar for the provision of Secretariat services) and a short FAQ are available now on the IAOC web site: http://koi.uoregon.edu/~iaoc/ The FAQ is intended to be a living document and will be updated as questions come in from the community. Please address your questions and concerns to either iaoc@xxxxxxxx or directly to the IETF list (ietf@xxxxxxxx). Lucy E.
