Am I wrong to assume that once the TC issues its next specification >implementers will be required obtain a license from Liberty (unlike the RSA >IP RF license)? AFAIK, Liberty doesn't require a separate license to implement, it simply controls the distribution of the specs. The rest is handled by any holders of IPR (such as RSA for example) directly. Liberty's board gave the SSTC the rights to derive work and copyright the results under OASIS, so the specs are covered. Implementing would depend on whatever IPR people bring to the table. I'm not aware of any IPR licenses on current Liberty implementations apart from RSA's SAML claims. I think it would be good to clarify/check all of this. As an open source developer, I certainly try and avoid specs that are encumbered or uncertain and would be opposed to their introduction into the process (granting that OASIS certainly allows it). -- Scott
