Re: IPR Disclosure: The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York's Statement about IPR related to draft-ietf-nsis-tunnel-13

With respect, this is crazy.

11 months after the WGLC for this doc the authors submit an IPR 
statement?  This document has been a WG item since June 2006. Exactly 
when didn't they have time to come forward with a notification, say 
in 2007, or 2008 or 2009?
