This document was produced by a group operating under the 
5 February 2004 W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public 
list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the 
deliverables of the group; that page also includes instructions 
for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge 
of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential 
Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with 
section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy.
