I am disappointed by the current Last Call draft. Please amend the policy to prohibit the imposition of "field of use" restrictions on patent claims contributed to W3C standards. Without this change it would be possible for a company to block certain Free Software projects from making use of the standards, which will certainly hamper advancement.
