Prior reasons to be hesitant about this work included the rather substantial change to routing and forwarding, and the need to deploy network wide (no accommodation for legacy equipment). Regardless, it became a WG item. Now that there is an IPR disclosure with no statement at all regarding licensing terms, it might be time to reconsider whether the WG should go forward with this work. IMHO- If the IPR disclosure is not updated with a reasonable and non-discriminatory, preferably royalty-free, licensing statement, the MRT work should be abandoned by RTGWG.
