Are there any intellectualy property issues in regard to implementing
SPKI/SDSI?
Nothing is mentioned in the RFCs or on the IETF Page of Intellectual
Property Rights Notices. I've searched for any reference to this, but
nothing definite came up.
That would lead to the conclusion that SPKI/SDSI are free of patent and
other IP claims. If this is true, commercial implementatons of SPKI/SDSI
technologies should be possible without licensing them, can anyone
confirm this?
Thanks and best regards,
Josko
