Loop: I few years ago I posted that MFL seemed to me to stand for Much Future Litigation. Subseqent events with Idcc licensees over the years have born this idea out. At the time I was informed that MFL clauses were a standard feature in patent licenses. I hope this is not so today or in the future. I always wondered about the reasons for HG's being fired. I now believe it was due do his being outmaneuvered by rival attornies. MFL clauses and special conditions(such as "triggers") played no small role in this. He was however representing a much more vulnerable Idcc than is presently the case and this may have had something to due with his agreeing to these weak licenses. I assume that Idcc has learned from HG's mistakes and will not repeat them
