I do not think there is zero progress as at least I’ve signed a SGA to change all the files from Xiaomi to Apache License.
For the work on cleaning the license for other files, I could ask Peter and Xiang Xiao again to let them be more aggressive on this task. It is the long holiday in China, will ask them when they come back. But in general, I prefer that someone in the community promise to take the responsibility of this nasty task, not by an order from their manager. I know this is not an easy work, and much boring than writing code for engineers, but we need to do these type of works to drive the project forward. Thanks.
