AM Subject: [ebxml-cppa] Please tell me how to understand IBM's IPR statement.
Please respond to
Yukinori Saito
Dear someone of CPPA TC,
Please tell me how to understand and deal with about IBM's IPR statement.
The new IPR statement from IBM says 'As provided in IBM's May 16, 2002
disclosure to OASIS, IBM will, upon written request, continue to provide a
nonexclusive, royalty free patent license, with other reasonable terms and
conditions for ALL patents issued to IBM which contain essential claims and
for which IBM is able to provide patent licenses (including the issued
patent and unpublished patent application disclosed above), for the OASIS
ebXML Collaboration Protocol Profiles (CPP's) and Collaboration Protocol
Agreements (CPA's) Versions 1 and 2 specifications.'
If some companies implement CPPA specification in the solution software or
application system, Do they have to inform or report this activities to IBM
with some written document?
I understand that we can use CPPA specification with royalty free to IBM's
patent. But I am anxious about the text 'upon written request' in the above
IBM's statement.
May I confirm whether we (Implementers or Users) should inform or report
this kind of implementation to IBM or not?
Some companies and organizations in Japan and Asia are now going to
implement the CPPA specification V2.0 in their solution software or
application system.
Best Regards,
Yukinori Saito
