Hi Teco,
In section 4.7 there are probably several alternative word choices which would
work well. A couple are
free -> unused
freed -> cleared
Kind Regards,
Scott

Maintainers of the document, please check my text on "free" and "freed" in use
case 4.7. I'm not native english speaker.
I meant "free" as "unused", and "freed" as "now unused".
On terminology: there are endless possibilities: "paid, unused", "free of
charge but licensed", "licensed, but non-exclusive" etc etc.

If this is a protocol for accessing white space why do we care.
Besides The terms exclusive and non exclusive are much more appropriate.
A " license" implies exclusivity, where as "unlicensed or license exempt" imply
non exclusivity.
The term licensed and unlicensed get juxtaposed too often to imply "paid for"
and "free".
The PAWS protocol should include enough information such that the access to the
spectrum could be paid for. There is nothing that says White Space access has
to be free.

Dear Scott, Raj, and all,
Abstract
Portions of the radio spectrum that are allocated to a licensed,
primary user but are unused or unoccupied at specific locations and
times are defined as "white space". The concept of allowing
secondary transmissions (licensed or unlicensed) in white space is a
technique to "unlock" existing spectrum for new use.
I would change (licensed or unlicensed) to: (licensed, licensed exempt or
unlicensed) as some countries have 3 categories.
Also, license exempt is mentioned in section 4.4
SIncerely, Nancy
