[OpenID] OpenID IPR Policy Draft

[Recordon, David]

Brett,
We certainly are going to be working with our counsel, though first wanted to make sure we captured the community's intent.

This is normally lawyer work.  I recommend the companies & individuals invested in OpenID immediately turn this exercise over to your legal counsel to ensure your interests--and the interests of the community--are protected appropriately. 

Does the new OpenID organization have legal counsel retained (I don't mean volunteers, but actually hired)?  If not, that would be my second recommendation.

Hey guys,
Been working with Gabe, and others, on starting to draft an IPR Policy
for OpenID specifications.  We'd appreciate feedback in terms of if what
is written captures the correct intent of the community?  We realize the 
language isn't technically as tight as it needs to be, though first want
to make sure it is saying the right thing.  It is largely based on the
IPR Policy for Microformats.

Thanks,
