Abstract

   This document describes a proposal for one form of a template for
   IETF patent disclosures and licensing declarations.  The optional use
   of this template is meant to simplify the process of such disclosures
   and licensing declarations and to assist disclosers in providing the
   necessary information to meet the obligations documented in RFC 3668.

1.  Introduction

1. Introduction

   RFC 3668 [RFC3668] documents the current IETF policies and
   obligations with respect to disclosure of patents and patent
   applications.  It also documents the information requested in
   licensing declarations for IETF specifications.  In the interest of
   making these patent disclosure and licensing declaration processes
   simpler, this document proposes a patent disclosure and licensing
   declaration template that may be optionally used as one method for
   IETF participants and patent holders to comply with patent disclosure
   requirements and licensing declaration provisions under RFC 3668.

   This proposal also may be optionally used as a model by the IETF
   Secretariat for Web-based disclosure and licensing declaration tools;
   however, the intent of this document is informational and is not
   meant to suggest that this is the only method that could be used by
   IETF participants for disclosure of patents or for licensing
   declarations.  For the latest information on how to submit a patent
   disclosure or licensing declaration, please see

   be presented in the way they are usually presented in an English-
   speaking context.

3. Commentary on Terms Used in the Template

   Section III requests contact information for the Patent Holder's IETF
   participant whose personal belief that necessary patent claims are
   implicated by an IETF document or contribution caused this template
   to be filed.  This is an optional section.  However, if Section III
   is not completed, then Section VII must be completed.  Even if
   Section III is completed, Section VII must still be completed if the
   submitter of this template is different from the IETF participant
   identified in Section III.

This is an optional section. However, if Section III is not completed, then Section VII must be completed. Even if Section III is completed, Section VII must still be completed if the submitter of this template is different from the IETF participant identified in Section III.

   The "Other Designations" field in Section IV may be used to identify
   an IETF contribution (oral or written) other than an Internet-Draft
   or RFC to which a disclosure is related.

The "Other Designations" field in Section IV may be used to identify an IETF contribution (oral or written) other than an Internet-Draft or RFC to which a disclosure is related.

   Here is an explanation of the licensing declaration options in
   Section VI of the template:

Here is an explanation of the licensing declaration options in Section VI of the template:

   a) No License Required for Implementers: The Patent Holder does not
      require parties to acquire any license to its Necessary Patent
      Claims in order to make, have made, use, import, offer to sell,
      sell, or distribute technology that implements such an IETF
      specification.

a) No License Required for Implementers: The Patent Holder does not require parties to acquire any license to its Necessary Patent Claims in order to make, have made, use, import, offer to sell, sell, or distribute technology that implements such an IETF specification.

   b) Royalty-Free, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory License to All
      Implementers: The Patent Holder is willing, upon request, to grant
      a license to its Necessary Patent Claims to all persons on a
      royalty-free basis (i.e., no royalty or other fee) and under other
      reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions, to make,

b) Royalty-Free, Reasonable, and Non-Discriminatory License to All Implementers: The Patent Holder is willing, upon request, to grant a license to its Necessary Patent Claims to all persons on a royalty-free basis (i.e., no royalty or other fee) and under other reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions, to make,

      have made, use, import, offer to sell, sell, and distribute
      technology that implements such an IETF specification.

have made, use, import, offer to sell, sell, and distribute technology that implements such an IETF specification.

   c) Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory License to All Implementers with
      Possible Royalty/Fee: The Patent Holder is willing, upon request,
      to grant a license to its Necessary Patent Claims to all persons
      under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions
      (which may include a royalty/fee), to make, have made, use,
      import, offer to sell, sell, and distribute technology that
      implements such an IETF specification.

c) Reasonable and Non-Discriminatory License to All Implementers with Possible Royalty/Fee: The Patent Holder is willing, upon request, to grant a license to its Necessary Patent Claims to all persons under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions (which may include a royalty/fee), to make, have made, use, import, offer to sell, sell, and distribute technology that implements such an IETF specification.

   d) Licensing Declaration to be Provided Later: The Patent Holder is
      willing to commit to the provisions of a), b), or c) above, but
      wants to defer its specific selection of one of these licensing
      declaration options until a later point in time (or when asked for
      this information by the IESG).  This option may not be selected if
      the Patent Holder is unwilling to commit to the provisions of a),
      b), or c) above.  In that case, the Patent Holder must select
      licensing declaration option e) - "Unwilling to Commit to the
      Provisions of a), b), or c) Above."

d) Licensing Declaration to be Provided Later: The Patent Holder is willing to commit to the provisions of a), b), or c) above, but wants to defer its specific selection of one of these licensing declaration options until a later point in time (or when asked for this information by the IESG). This option may not be selected if the Patent Holder is unwilling to commit to the provisions of a), b), or c) above. In that case, the Patent Holder must select licensing declaration option e) - "Unwilling to Commit to the Provisions of a), b), or c) Above."

   e) Unwilling to Commit to the Provisions of a), b), or c) Above: The
      Patent Holder indicates an unwillingness to commit to the
      provisions of any of options a), b), or c) described above.

e) Unwilling to Commit to the Provisions of a), b), or c) Above: The Patent Holder indicates an unwillingness to commit to the provisions of any of options a), b), or c) described above.

   Options a), b), and c) above also allow the Patent Holder to indicate
   (with a check) whether its licensing declaration is limited solely to
   standards-track RFCs.  If left unchecked, the Patent Holder's
   licensing declaration will be deemed to apply to any implementation
   of the relevant IETF specification, including non-standards-track
   documents and Internet-Drafts.  However, the Patent Holder may list
   other conditions or restrictions on its commitment to forego a
   license (option a)) or on its commitment to license (options b) and
   c)) in Section VIII - "Other Notes."  This standards-track qualifier
   is not relevant to licensing declaration options d) and e), because
   under d) the Patent Holder has not yet indicated its specific
   licensing intention and under e) the Patent Holder has indicated a
   general refusal to commit to the provisions of any of options a), b),
   or c) above.

Options a), b), and c) above also allow the Patent Holder to indicate (with a check) whether its licensing declaration is limited solely to standards-track RFCs. If left unchecked, the Patent Holder's licensing declaration will be deemed to apply to any implementation of the relevant IETF specification, including non-standards-track documents and Internet-Drafts. However, the Patent Holder may list other conditions or restrictions on its commitment to forego a license (option a)) or on its commitment to license (options b) and c)) in Section VIII - "Other Notes." This standards-track qualifier is not relevant to licensing declaration options d) and e), because under d) the Patent Holder has not yet indicated its specific licensing intention and under e) the Patent Holder has indicated a general refusal to commit to the provisions of any of options a), b), or c) above.

   Section VIII in the template, "Other Notes," may be used for any
   additional information a discloser or Patent Holder wishes to
   provide.  For example, a Patent Holder may use the "Other Notes"
   Section to indicate any other conditions or restrictions on the
   licensing declaration option selected in Section VI (e.g., 1)
   reciprocity, or 2) that a license will only be made available for
   implementations of any RFC (standards-track or non-standards-track),
   but not for implementations of Internet-Drafts or other documents).

Section VIII in the template, "Other Notes," may be used for any additional information a discloser or Patent Holder wishes to provide. For example, a Patent Holder may use the "Other Notes" Section to indicate any other conditions or restrictions on the licensing declaration option selected in Section VI (e.g., 1) reciprocity, or 2) that a license will only be made available for implementations of any RFC (standards-track or non-standards-track), but not for implementations of Internet-Drafts or other documents).

4.  Security Considerations

4. Security Considerations

   This document relates to the IETF process, not any particular
   technology.  There are security considerations when adopting any
   particular technology, regardless of whether patent or patent
   application disclosures or licensing declarations are implicated by
   such technology.  A working group should take those security
   considerations into account as one part of evaluating the technology,
   but there are no security considerations per se with these IETF
   processes.
