Title:<br>
IPR Policy Update v1.5<br>
<br>
Description:<br>
One of the most important responsibilities of the OpenID Foundation is its
stewardship of intellectual property; maintaining and protecting OpenID
technical protocols as they evolve. We are asking the community to vote
on a revision to our IPR policy which provides information regarding companies
who are parts of larger holding companies or other legal entities (aka
"Bound Entities"). These are the only recommended changes to
the IPR policy at this time. The updated IPR document, with the draft
changes 'tracked', can be viewed here:<br>

Available Choices:<br>
<br>
