What means IPO?
Initial Public Offering when a private entity becomes a public corporation.
I was teasing you all about the increasing legalism pervading Apache.
It's already got Theo de Raadt swearing he's going to pull Apache
out of the OpenBSD source tree.
:-)
Unfortunately it is a consequence of what is happening in the world at large. Things such as the SCO lawsuit. I think everyone is dotting their legal i's these days.
We need to decide how we handle the author tags issue in the Ant project. We need a mechanism to credit people's contributions appropriately. The board suggests a CHANGES file. My preference would be to create a CONTRIBUTORS file listing names only, due to worms and spam (an interesting image to play with).
My preference would be to remove them in one fell swoop rather than piecemeal as we change files.
