Indeed it is missing.  Here's the summary I propose to add:

-- SRP Intellectual Property Rights (David Black)

See David's slides for details (contents have been posted to the list).
Lucent
has broken their promise to tell the IETF whether the EKE patents are
related to
SRP.  Phoenix statement on whether the SPEKE patent relates to SRP is
expected
prior to Minneapolis.  Tom Wu (inventor of SRP, author of RFC 2945) attended
the meeting and said that it is Stanford University's position (Tom invented
SRP while at Stanford) that no patent rights other than Stanford's (for
which
a free license is available on the web) are required for use of SRP.
Requirement level (MUST/SHOULD/MAY) for SRP in iSCSI will be taken up in
Minneapolis.

Thanks,
