This document defines these words as they should be interpreted in IETF document

<abstract>
<t>The IETF policies about Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), suc
h as patent rights, relative to technologies developed in the IETF are designed
to ensure that IETF working groups and participants have as much information as
possible about any IPR constraints on a technical proposal as early as possible
in the development process. The policies are intended to benefit the Internet c
ommunity and the public at large, while respecting the legitimate rights of IPR
holders. This document sets out the IETF policies concerning IPR related to tec
hnology worked on within the IETF. It also describes the objectives that the po
licies are designed to meet. This document updates RFC 2026 and, with RFC 5378,
replaces Section 10 of RFC 2026. This document also obsoletes RFCs 3979 and 487
9.</t>
