Hi Russ,
I don't know what an antitrust policy is... Could you explain?
Is this something like a conflict of interest policy? Or is it a policy to
avoid situations where we might be engaging in some sort of collusion?
Your plan sounds fine to me, on general principles, but I'd like to know what
we're asking a lawyer to write.
Thanks,
Margaret

The IETF legal counsel and insurance agent suggest that the IETF ought to
have an antitrust policy. To address this need, a lawyer is needed. As a
way forward, I suggest that IASA pay a lawyer to come up with an initial
draft, and then this draft be brought to the community for review and comment
(and probably revision). I think a new mail list should be used for the
discussion. Once the new mail list reaches rough consensus on the antitrust
policy document, I suggest using the usual process for adopting the policy as
an IETF BCP.
What do others think? I am open to suggestions for an alternative approach.
Russ
