Comment on TLS authorization

[Bernhard Damberger <bernhard_damberger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Please do not ratify the "TLS authorization" standard as experimental or 
informational, unless the patent holders agree to a royalty-free license 
for all users. Allowing patented standards to be promoted under the IETF 
sends a bad message, and creates a two tier system: unencumbered 
standards and encumbered "experimental or informational" standards. It 
is best to keep things clear by not muddying the waters with patents.

Thanks for your time.

Keep up the good work!
