Call for Exclusions: Content Security Policy: Cookie Controls and Content Security Policy: Embedded Enforcement

Dear Advisory Committee representative,

This is a W3C Patent Policy Call for Exclusions for the following
Recommendation Track documents:

- Content Security Policy: Cookie Controls
   (http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-csp-cookies-20151215/),
   exclusion opportunity ending on 13 May 2016 23:59 UTC

- Content Security Policy: Embedded Enforcement
   (http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-csp-embedded-enforcement-20151215/),
   exclusion opportunity ending on 13 May 2016 23:59 UTC


These specifications were produced by the Web Application Security Working
Group.

If you do not wish to exclude patent claims during this exclusion
opportunity, no further action is required. Member participants who think
their organization may have patent claims to exclude should contact their
Advisory Committee Representative.

Participants made a Royalty-Free licensing commitment upon joining this
Working Group. With the publication of this document, per section 4.1 of
the Patent Policy [1] Participants have an opportunity until 13 May 2016
23:59 UTC to exclude patent claims reading on this Recommendation track
document. Excluded claims are not subject to the licensing requirements
of the W3C Patent Policy for this document. For more information about
exclusions, please see
  http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Patent-Policy-20040205/#sec-Exclusion

To make exclusions, please use the following form:
  https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/49309/exclude

The Patent Policy anticipates that the documents will evolve during the 90
days following the first publication.  Per section 4.1 of the Patent Policy
[1], whatever draft is available on 14 March 2016 establishes the reference
material [3] for the purposes of this exclusion opportunity. Just after 14
March 2016, we will send a reminder and identify the reference draft. Due
to the anticipated instability of the documents prior to 14 March 2016,
Participants may wish to exclude any claims only after publication of the
reference draft (and no later than the end of the exclusion opportunity).

Per section 4.2 of the Patent Policy [2], a Participant may resign from the
Working Group before 14 March 2016 and be excused from all licensing
commitments arising out of Working Group participation.

To resign from the Working Group before 14 March 2016, please use the
following form:
  https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/49309/leave
