"In the event Thomson determines it has issued patents or patent applications that are required to implement the draft standard, Thomson commits to make a license available to applicants under commercially reasonable nondiscriminatory terms and conditions." I understand the added convenience of replacing this statement with a tick mark in one of the standard options, and I'll make that request again and advise any further adaptation. Regards, Tom S. From: Sipher Tom Sent: Friday, March 24, :04 AM To: 'Jean Johnson' Subject: Draft CEA-2013 (STB Energy Consumption) - IP statement Hi Jean, Please send me the CEA intellectual property rights policy when you can, I've never seen it, the CEA web site search seems stalled last few days while its changing, and Thomson IP team would like to review the policy. Pending that policy review and any additional information, Thomson makes the below IP-related statement as part of the CEA-2013 document: Regards, Tom S. "In the event Thomson determines it has issued patents or patent applications that are required to implement the draft standard, Thomson commits to make a license available to applicants under commercially reasonable nondiscriminatory terms and conditions."
