Juju patents

[Merlijn Sebrechts]

Hi all


Just got a scholar alert for three patents that seem to be describing
Juju/TOSCA.

- "TOPOLOGY BASED MANAGEMENT WITH STAGE AND VERSION POLICIES":
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2017/0302532.html
- "TOPOLOGY BASED MANAGEMENT WITH COMPLIANCE POLICIES":
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2017/0302531.html
- TOPOLOGY BASED MANAGEMENT OF SECOND DAY OPERATIONS":
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/y2017/0302537.html

These were filed in 2014 by HPE. Even with a grace period of one year, it's
still more than a year after the first release of Juju and TOSCA. Is
Canonical interested in fighting this?



Kind regards
Merlijn
