Raptor codes are powerful, but one has to be careful with them, as they are heavily patent encumbered by Qualcomm according to Wikipedia[1]:
"Raptor codes are heavily covered with patents in various jurisdictions. For the specific instances specified in RFCs, statements by patent owners may or may not provide some leeway, depending among other things on whether the device carrying the implementation also implements a "wide-area wireless" specification."
So I encourage people who otherwise work with Error-Correcting codes to tread lightly when considering implementing Raptor and RaptorQ codes.
