NIST and Micali settle Clipper patent dispute

NIST has agreed to license Micali's key escrow patents. I posted their press release in talk.politics.crypto and alt.privacy.clipper. The settlement is evidently open-ended; there's an article in Cyberwire Dispatch (whatever that is -- a copy was forwarded to me) that discusses the ramifications in some detail.
