We don't require a CPA in messaging. We expended a great deal of time and
effort to make sure that the MSG spec is correct while not requiring a CPA.
Whether you want to advise users to configure their systems manually
instead of using a CPA is an entirely different question.
It won't serve anyone well to pull V2 back from the OASIS approval process
at this point if that's what you have in mind.
Regards,
Marty

We need to seriously consider whether we require CPPA in Messaging. If IBM
requires a license to use CPPA, that could easily transfer to Messaging
based
upon this requirement.

I logged on this morning to vote yes on the specification. Now I am going
to
abstain.
I gather that the very existence of this technology is what IBM claims and
there
is nothing we can change in the specification to obviate IBMs claim -- they
claim the whole document even though they had a minor role in developing
it.
IBM is going to require anyone who uses CPPA to obtain a license? This
makes
IBM the owner of CPPA! Marty has assured us that the cost will be zero,
yet IBM
is not willing to make this assurance in writing. Rest assured then, the
cost
will not always be zero.

David Fischer

Regarding the question in the minutes of whether someone must apply for a
license for the IBM patents, I have checked on the answer. The answer is
yes. If a company believes that their CPPA implementation may be covered
by the IBM patents, the procedure is to apply to IBM for a license. There
will be no fee for the license.

Marty
