--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Chairs' Advisory Committee Reflector ---
Jon, Would you confirm this response with Yve Ho-Sang? I received a different answer– that the IEEE does not grant copyright permission for drafts, only published standards, see 7.2.2 a),
SASB Bylaws 7.2.2 at https://standards.ieee.org/about/policies/bylaws/sect6-7.html
. “The IEEE-SA
copyright policy does not permit us to grant permission for use of the draft material
for purposes other than IEEE 802.11ax standards development (emphasis added) prior to approval by the IEEE-SA Standards Board.” 7.2.2 Contributions not previously Published a) IEEE has the non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide rights (i.e., a license) to use the Contribution in connection with the development of the Work Product for
which the Contribution was made. b) Upon (i) approval of the standard; or (ii) final release or publication of a Work Product by an Industry Connections activity, IEEE has the right to exploit and grant permission
to use the Work Product's content derived from the Contribution in any format or media without restriction. Copyright ownership of the original Contribution is not transferred
or assigned to the IEEE. Dorothy ------------------------ Dorothy Stanley Hewlett Packard Enterprise +1 630-363-1389 From: Jon Rosdahl [mailto:jrosdahl@xxxxxxxx]
Greetings, I have had a question about referencing 802.11 Draft Specifications by outside organizations. I worked with Jonathan Goldberg to get a response. I wanted to share with you all to ensure
we are all on the same page. The question posed: When referencing a draft spec., can the extraction of the materials within the draft spec be used as part of the referencing ? e.g. quoting some Mandatory/optional PHY modes. The IEEE-SA official response:
Documents can always be referenced, however, it is recommend to included a note that the drafts are subject to change. Regards, Jon -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
