Chris, my personal kudos to you for not inventing a new license. Question:<br><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
could the additional IP grant be extended to "Google and WebM contributors"<br>
rather than Google alone?<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>No. As others might give us patches, we could be interpreted as providing coverage for thier patents,too, which we can't do. <br><br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
If you will have an Android-style contributor agreement for WebM, all contributors<br>
would be granting you sufficient patent rights to extend the IP grant.<br></blockquote><div><br>Sort of, we're reviewing the CLA. <br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
