My company
has asked for your patience while they take the time to evaluate the
concerns and determine if there is an appropriate course of action in
this matter to alleviate the concerns of the community.
...

With the long history of "Note Well" slides and notices,
and the claim of http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-montemurro-gsma-imei-urn
to be in full conformance with BCP 79,
it would seem the time for evaluating "an appropriate course of action"
was some time in the past.

This looks really bad to me, and I'm having a hard time figuring out what an
innocent explanation for this might be.
