Just to make sure I understand the sequence of events:
1. August 21, 2007: Huawei files a patent (CN 200710076523.4) on using SIP for SIEVE notifications. The inventor is listed as a single Huawei employee. 2. August 30, 2007: That same Huawei employee and two additional authors publish an IETF draft ( draft-melnikov-sieve-notify-sip-message-00) on using SIP for SIEVE notifications. 3. September 2007 - September 2011: The SIEVE working group discusses and improves the IETF draft. 4. October 6, 2011: The IESG approves the IETF draft for publication as an RFC. 5. December 14th, 2011: Huawei files an IPR disclosure with the IETF informing it of patent CN 200710076523.4 Is that correct? Am I leaving anything out? /a On 1/25/12 2:17 PM, The IESG wrote:
The IESG has received a request from the Sieve Mail Filtering Language WG (sieve) to consider the following document: - 'Sieve Notification Mechanism: SIP MESSAGE' <draft-ietf-sieve-notify-sip-message-08.txt> as a Proposed Standard Last calls were earlier issued on version -05 of this document and this document was approved by the IESG on 2011-10-06. Subsequently, an IPR disclosure statement for this draft was submitted. This Second Last Call is intended to determine whether the community is still comfortable with publication of this document in light of the IPR statement. The relevant IPR statement is available at: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1658/ The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2012-02-08. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.
