IRTF IPR Disclosure 
Rules

The IRTF follows the IETF Intellectual Property Rights 
(IPR) disclosure rules. This is a summary of these rules as 
they relate to IRTF research group discussions, mailing 
lists and Internet Drafts:

*  If you include your own or your employerÕs IPR in a 
contribution to an IRTF research group, then you must file 
an IPR disclosure with the IETF.
*  If you recognize your own or your employerÕs IPR in 
someone elseÕs contribution and you are participating in 
the discussions in the research group relating to that 
contribution, then you must file an IPR disclosure with the 
IETF. Even if you are not participating in the discussion, 
the IRTF still requests that you file an IPR disclosure 
with the IETF.
*  Finally, the IRTF requests that you file an IPR 
disclosure with the IETF if you recognize IPR owned by 
others in any IRTF contribution.

The IRTF expects that you file IPR disclosures in a timely 
manner, i.e., in a period measured in days or weeks, not 
months. The IRTF prefers that the most liberal licensing 
terms possible are available for IRTF Stream documents, see 
RFC 5743. You may file an IPR disclosure here:

See RFC 3979 (BCP 79) for definitions of ÒIPRÓ and 
ÒcontributionÓ and for the detailed rules (substituting 
ÒIRTFÓ for ÒIETFÓ).
