There was a action item that was closed today AI #280. The wording below is not definitive ("we believe") which is somewhat worry some, can we please make a clear IPR statement as IPR statement (I take this as an IPR statement) is worded in such a way as to suggest that doing anything "useful" with the SAML profile and encrypted channels may require licensing RSA patents.
I would like to either reopen AI #280 or create a new AI to cover these concerns.

[wss] RSA license and the upcoming SAML Interop
After some careful review today, we believe that it will not be necessary for implementers engaged in supporting the upcoming interop scenarios to sign the RF license agreement with RSA, provided that Scenario #3 does not make use of an encrypted channel between the Requestor and Responder.
