Based on further thought, I believe this was a reference to the standard boilerplate that says the draft conforms to RFC 2026. I was confused because, while patents are certainly an important area of RFC 2026, the boilerplate you include at the start of a draft does not mention the word patent and I've never heard it referred to before as a "patent statement". Participants in this working group are reminded that 'Working group members must disclose intellectual properties "that are reasonably and personally known" to be relevant to this WG in accordance with IETF and W3C procedure; including notice and disclosure of such information to the WG, and the IETF Executive Director.' (from the IETF XMLDSIG charter). >>Jim Schaad and Barbara Fox >>Microsoft >> - Thanks, Donald =================================================================== Donald E.
