Hello [I commented on http://openid.net/2007/12/31/openid-intellectual-property-policy-approved/ when I first saw this but saw no response.]
Can someone enlighten me (and doubtless quite a few others): * Can one still be on the @openid.net lists without signing anything? * Will anything discussed on the lists be implicitly assumed to be covered by the IPR policy? I've tried to check the rationale docs, but can't figure it out. Do I confuse the lists with upcoming, "proper", working groups? Also: any chance of a FAQ entry that describes the diffs to for example W3C, IETF, OASIS IPR policies and processes? Thanks, Hans PS. Btw, the rationale document linked from http://openid.net/foundation/intellectual-property/ seems to have disappeared. Is it correct to assume Draft_20070925.pdf is still the latest and that it will be updated?
