Summary of 19 February 2002 Patent Policy Working Group Teleconference

Hello,

Twelve people attended the 19 February 2002 Patent Policy Working Group
(PPWG) teleconference.

Most of the meeting was spent reviewing the third Royalty-Free (RF)
internal draft, prepared by Daniel Weitzner, PPWG Chair. Reciprocal
licensing, field of use restrictions, defensive suspension, the role of
W3C Advisory Committee representatives in making disclosures, unrelated
third parties, US and other government requirements, and rescinding
Recommendations were discussed.

Some time was spent on refining the draft's language. The group agreed
to publish a public Working Draft based on the third RF internal draft.

Best wishes,
--
