Ralph, for clarification ... is there more than the one IP disclosure at http://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1734/ ?


The term  "disclosures" lead me to believe there may be more than one

Note that this last call is a second last call, to gather comments on the publication of the document considering the IPR disclosures that were published late in the previous IETF last call.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits

Abstract


    The purpose of this document is to provide applicability of the
    Access Node Control mechanism to PON-based broadband access. The
    need for an Access Node Control mechanism between a Network
    Access Server (NAS) and an Access Node Complex (a combination of
    Optical Line Termination (OLT) and Optical Network Termination
    (ONT) elements) is described in a multi-service reference
    architecture in order to perform QoS-related, service-related and
    Subscriber-related operations. The Access Node Control mechanism
    is also extended for interaction between components of the Access
    Node Complex (OLT and ONT). The Access Node Control mechanism
    will ensure that the transmission of information between the NAS
    and Access Node Complex (ANX) and between the OLT and ONT within
    an ANX does not need to go through distinct element managers but
    rather uses a direct device-to-device communication and stays on
    net. This allows for performing access link related operations
    within those network elements to meet performance objectives.
