Also, remove the third clause in the RF definition, which mandates that
a Royalty-Free License "shall not be considered accepted by an
implementer who manifests an intent not to accept the terms of the
Royalty-Free License as offered by the licensor".

I had raised my concerns regarding this in relation to open source
implementors yesterday, but no one from the W3C has clarified this as
yet.

P.S.: This GPG key is temporary. Also, word wrap may screw it up like 
it did my last two messages.
