General comment:
The US Patent office procedures are such that there is a delay between
filing and public disclosure of applications. That may be applicable here.
the IETF procedures specifically ask folks to tell us about such patent
applications, if they think they apply. However, we understand that we
can not get details at that point.
If we treat such disclosure as a priori blocked of WG consideration of a
document, we invite denial of service attacks on our work. If this
document were being last called, then the question would be
significantly more complicated. But we are only at WG adoption, as a
starting point for work on a topic.
(This is separate from the additional, relevant, question that Robert asks.)
Yours,
Joel M. Halpern

A direct link to the Patent Application would be appreciated!
Ditto. I'm reluctant to take any stance on this draft without more
information on what the patent claims.
Additionally, I'd like to see a clear statement as to what this draft
says for which the existing draft-ietf-sidr-roa-validation is insufficient.
