Well this is why I said:

This should serve to protect the IPR - while people can discuss
whatever, for things to be in the spec they have to be on list.
As an additional precaution, I think that while subscribing to list is
one way to agree to the feedback license, another is simply asking
anyone who is not a TC member to confirm.
Just in case, I also suggested to Eugenio that anyone discussing issues
connected to a virtio spec is presented with a reminder along the lines
of:
By joining the meeting, participants agree that any information shared in the
meeting will be considered submitted by them to the VIRTIO TC, according
the OASIS Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) Policy
https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/ipr
Hope this helps.
