09:01:16 can someone please explain to me the subtle difference between being a member of the htmlwg and not being a member of the htmlwg?
09:01:29 since it doesn't seem to have anything to do with participating in the htmlwg
09:01:45 Hixie: PP commitment?
09:02:10 Hixie: also, I guess participants to the group are subscribed to public-html
09:02:52 not being subscribed to public-html doesn't seem to matter when people continually check the archives
09:03:20 Members get to vote
09:04:03 hm, ok
09:04:07 interesting point
09:04:26 oh yeah, that, too
09:05:18 Members have to set up a filter so that they don't get any email whereas non members get that for free
09:06:16 mjs: thanks for answering my questions
09:06:42 hsivonen: I'm not entirely sure what to do to the policy document, for both of them
09:07:03 former participants are (I think) still bound by the PP commitment
09:07:27 non-members don't get to vote in votes or polls or object to consensus resolutions
09:07:35 What happens if they violate the PP commitment?
09:07:58 ROBOd has joined #html-wg
09:11:45 I would assume the Patent Policy says
09:12:51 I don't think the PP actually gives any specific penalties
09:16:31 I think the way it's written, there's no way to violate it, because you have to either disclose, withdraw, or implicitly license any essential claims royalty-free
09:17:55 if you tried to then sue someone implementing the spec for patent infringement on an essential claim, the defendant would likely have a strong defense and the plaintiff would likely be smacked with penalties by the court
09:18:16 (IANAL but I believe this has happened in prior cases of trying to renege on IPR policy in a standards group)
09:18:31 jgraham: it only applies to people who have agreed to it
09:18:41 (IANAL but I remember that too)
09:18:43 i.e. participants and former participants have obligations
09:19:06 random non-members would have to agree explicitly
