OK.......??

ITU standards should not be formulated or used to create or allow a commercial (monopolistic) abuse, since standards should be available to everyone and this applies to a recommendation in its entirety or partly, including those "hidden" within a standard.

2.3. if the patent holder declares that it is neither willing to waive its patent rights nor negotiate licenses on a fair and nondiscriminatory basis, then ITU will not make a standard based on the suggestion or uses the patent


So does this mean that all comers should be able to license and use these patents?? Does this mean anything implied to ASIC fabrication? Does this mean a Lucent or TI can, after license, produce and sell ASIC's freely?? And failing to do that, does it imply then that the ITU will forego setting a standard or going the path of least resistances in setting a standard?
