Hi, Mohan,
As much as I applaud the idea of "patent-free protocols", isn't the issue
that we can't really know that a protocol is "patent-free"? We can only
observe that "we haven't been notified of any applicable patent claims -
yet".
For some value of the word "applicable"...
And maybe we could even say, "no one has told us they are being sued - yet",
but I'm not sure we want to go there, either
Thanks,
Spencer
