Inspired by Giovanni's observation (below), I took a quick look at the cited draft, and found fairly early on in the text the following : > An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which > the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must > disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of > the W3C Patent Policy. Whilst I am reasonably confident that this is so-called "boilerplate" text, it seems to me to be making an assertion to which the W3C has no right : that is, that /any/ individual (not just a member of the WG, or of W3C) who "has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s)" /must/ "disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy". Has this statement ever been vetted by the W3C's lawyers ?
