Just to make sure I understand the sequence of events:
1. August 21, 2007: Huawei files a patent (CN 200710076523.4) on
using SIP for SIEVE notifications. The inventor is listed as a
single Huawei employee.
2. August 30, 2007: That same Huawei employee and two additional
authors publish an IETF draft (
draft-melnikov-sieve-notify-sip-message-00) on using SIP for
SIEVE notifications.
Correct, except let's call it an "Internet Draft" for precision's sake.
3. September 2007 - September 2011: The SIEVE working group
discusses and improves the IETF draft.
The draft appears to have been adopted by the WG in December 2008 as
draft-ietf-sieve-notify-sip-message-00, but otherwise correct.
(See:
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sieve-notify-sip-message/history/
)
4. October 6, 2011: The IESG approves the IETF draft for
publication as an RFC.
5. December 14th, 2011: Huawei files an IPR disclosure with the
IETF informing it of patent CN 200710076523.4
Correct.
The dates for the -convert draft (also just re-last called) were
slightly different, but the circumstances were largely the same.

The IESG has received a request from the Sieve Mail Filtering Language WG
(sieve) to consider the following document:
- 'Sieve Notification Mechanism: SIP MESSAGE'

Last calls were earlier issued on version -05 of this document and this
document was approved by the IESG on 2011-10-06. Subsequently,
an IPR disclosure statement for this draft was submitted.
This Second Last Call is intended to determine whether the community
is still comfortable with publication of this document in light of the IPR
statement.
The relevant IPR statement is available at:
