Re: IBM US Patent #5,148,479




I was travelling when the relevant discussion took place, so I can only
thank John, Perry and the rest for handling and resolving this issue.

Now that both SKIP and MKMP are license-free, we can look forward to a
convergence on the best technical solution for Internet key management.
We look forward to cooperating with the rest of the WG, and with specific
proposals, to reach this goal as soon as possible.

Best, Amir Herzberg

p.s. John, I think you did not put the cc: list below correctly.
