Subject: Re: [chairs] Of un-patents and un-inventions
Elysa, 100% agreed. Collectively I'm sure we can put something of value together here. I've also solicited input from the OSI community today too. They have had more experience with this already - so getting some support from their perspective is also useful here. My sense is that next up we have to actually create an unpatent template and run through it a couple of samples. The OASIS EML example I posted the link to I think is one excellent such - I'm sure people can think of others.
