Please extend the deadline. As the mailing list shows, most people just became aware of this in the last 24 hours. If this is to be an open conversation, then it must be handled in an open fashion -- so extend it for another week at least so that you can see exactly how much of an issue most people have with this absolute stupid proposal. Every time I go to an IETF meet, I am actively fighting against permitting such license controlled components into standards. I must also say that this very much smells like the Open Group has gotten involved (remember, those are the misnamed guys who tried to make X11 not free)
