One of the ground rules for AES is that the winner
will not enforce patent rights against implementations of
AES that conform to the FIPS standards that will be
published for the winner. This does not mean that the
patent rights go away. For example, if RC6 becomes the
AES, then RC5 does not become unencumbered by patents.

What if I want to implement RC6 right now without waiting for the AES
selection process? What are the RC6 licensing terms right now? Suppose RC6 is
not selected as the AES. What will be the licensing terms then?
