Again, I'm not going to object to using meeting time for this kind of session
if that's what's needed. But other than Harald's message, I have not heard
anything about this since Minneapolis and have not heard folks clamoring for
such a meeting. Heck, we haven't seen a proposed agenda for a meeting let
alone an I-D. How was it decided that everyone would obviously want to go and
that therefore a separate session was needed?
I'd like to see a session on IPR that doesn't conflict with
other meetings. It would be endlessly great if it could be
declared mandatory :-). IPR is increasingly a huge nuisance,
and because the current policy is less than completely clear
there's a lot of confusion about it when it comes up.
Although this may not be a problem (until the lawyers show
up) there's not a lot of consistency among working groups.
