Hi,

So the discussion on legal discuss has died down [1] and the SGA has been 
filled. My reading of that legal thread is that you now OK to transfer 
everything across. Code not owned by the Nuttx project can be worked as needed 
as everything is under a compatible license (BSD/MIT) and we have ICLAs (or 
will soon do) from the major contributors. Given bitbucket is git under the 
hood I’m not even sure we need to involve Infra and can just transfer the repos 
across and history will still be preserved.

I would suggest we ask for a VM from infra to set up fossology [2] so we can 
track all of the licenses / owners of the files. The will also help up build up 
the LICENSE (and NOTICE) files. This process will take time but it doesn’t have 
to be complete before you make you first release here and can happen in 
parallel.  One consideration may be that projects generally get one free VM and 
we may want to use it for something else. It may be that other project will 
want to use fossology and we get around it that way.

Does anyone has a different approach to suggest?

Thanks,
Justin
