Dear IETF committee members: I am sure that it is in IETF's best interest to promote the advance of the Internet by publishing free and open standards that everyone can freely use. However, a proposed standard titled "TLS Authorization Extensions" (http://tools.ietf.org/wg/tls/draft-housley-tls-authz-extns-07.txt) is not free for use by anyone. Specifically, RedPhone Security has a patent over the standard that is not licensed with a royalty-free license for all users world-wide. Therefore, I encourage IETF committee members to reject the standard unless RedPhone Security provides a royalty-free license for all users regarding the patent that RedPhone Security has over the standard. Sincerely yours, Tadeus Prastowo _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
