--- Comment #14 from Philippe Le Hegaret <plh@w3.org> ---
In terms of W3C Patent Policy, the FAQ says the following:
[[
32. Can a W3C Recommendation normatively refer to technology developed outside
W3C with licensing terms that differ from those of the W3C Patent Policy?
Yes. W3C Recommendations may include normative references to standards or
technologies developed outside of W3C. However, the Working Group should keep
in mind the importance of royalty-free implementations of Web standards. In the
event it becomes clear that the licensing status of those externally-developed
technologies could become a barrier to implementation of the technology
according to the W3C Royalty-Free (RF) Licensing Requirements, W3C may choose
not to publish the document or may launch a PAG.

So, the question is: is it a barrier to EME implementations according to W3C RF
requirements?
