>First, mea maxima culpa, I attached the wrong RID report to the 
>poll. (There were two versions with long names differentiated only 
>by a date at the end, which did not show up in directory view.) The 
>correct version is attached to this email.
>
>Second, the statement in the draft test report is not inconsistent 
>with our procedures, and in fact the Foreword of the draft Blue Book 
>contains the statement (required by our procedures):
>
>"Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of 
>this document may be the subject of patent rights. CCSDS has 
>processes for identifying patent issues and for securing from the 
>patent holder agreement that all licensing policies are reasonable 
>and non-discriminatory.  However, CCSDS does not have a patent law 
>staff, and CCSDS shall not be held responsible for identifying any 
>or all such patent rights."
>
>Please respond to this email if you feel your conditions have been 
>satisfied (or not).

>Best regards,
