 * Merge and redirect to Avaya. What is presented here is well sourced and would help out the main article.  Them From  Space  16:40, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep as what amounts to an index page, which would be helpful to users. Merging material such as this into the main article for a company as large as Nortel would be excessive. Incidentally, it just might be possible to write individual articles on some of these patents, especially if they have been the subject of litigation. I'm not about to do it, though.

 * Merge. There 4 notable patents in this list. Not excessive for a merge. Split if there's substantively more material. FuFoFuEd (talk) 10:44, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
 * Merge: We shouldn't keep this separate article, because it will always be a really brief stub with very little to expand without summarizing gargantuan primary sources. But seems to be a valid supplement to the main Avaya article. Dzlife (talk) 14:47, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
