Ok I know this is not an MSDN newsgroup, but still hope that somebody here
can answer this question.

Suppose I makes a wireless router based on "open source" software, and
license it under GPL.
This router should have "virtual AP" : one physical radio has several
different visible SSIDs.
Are they allowed to use the WPS Information element, as documented in MSDN :
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms818947.aspx

Is this Information element owned by Micrososoft or Cisco?
What routers and access point on sale (besides Cisco's) that use this IE?

Thanks,
