I understand IETF is proposing a standard for TLS authorization that
includes patent encumbered technologies. This is a very bad move in
my opinion.
Please reject standards that require patent encumbered technologies
until the patent holders contractually agree to giving all users and
developers a royalty-free license to implement the technology. Not
doing so will restrict the availability to implement the standard on
multiple platforms, and indeed render it a non-standard.
