[Fiware-legal] FIWARE LEGAL NOTICE

[Glueck-Otte, Irene]

Dear Luis,

we fully endorse the opinion of NSN that the actual text in the version "explicit"  for Patent licenses is inconsistent. A license can be under FRAND-conditions or it can be royalty-free but not both at the same time. However our consequences out of this inconsistency are not the same.

Our proposal is to leave "on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory conditions" in as it is, but to delete "royalty-free, paid up"

In our view there should be no obligation to grant patent licenses royalty-free.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Kind regards

Betreff: Re: [Fiware-legal] FIWARE LEGAL NOTICE

Dear Luis,

please find attached the commented versions from Nokia Siemens Networks including text changes to improve clarity on the explicit and the implicit legal notice. There are some questions included for clarification.

There are two general comments from the Nokia Siemens Networks perspective as follows:

·         The NSN preference would be (always)  to use the implicit grant.

·         Any use of the explicit patent grant would need case by case assessment.

We are looking forward for a revised version.

                Best regards,

                                Werner

Subject: [Fiware-legal] FIWARE LEGAL NOTICE

Dear all,

Find enclosed the two legal notices that have been produced by the Task Force Working Group launched by the FI-WARE PCC for this purpose. These Legal Notices will govern the FI-WARE specifications generated under FI-WARE.

There are two models: with explicit patent grant and implicit patent grant. You may choose the one you prefer for your Specifications as both, in our opinion, perfectly fits with the provisions of the FI-WARE CA and GA.

Notwithstanding, if you have any question or remarks, send them to me before next 20th March, as we must have this FIWARE Legal Notice definitively finished during April.

Best regards
