Comment Re:Enforceable? (Score 1) 95
The patent policy will be enforceable because whenever someone signs up to participate in the development of a spec at W3C, they will have to agree to abide by the terms of the patent policy. I won't rule out someone showing up later and saying that they didn't really mean to agree or that they had their fingers crossed behind their back when they checked the 'I agree...' box, but I don't see these excuses as holding much legal water. For better or worse, the enforcing a legal commitment like the patent policy is likely to be more straightforward than enforcing a technical specification.
