For Adobe donations, we made sure we had the IP clearance to donate it
(meaning we owned every file or had permission to donate very file) then
filed the software grant. Recently, Bertrand said we were supposed then do
another Apache-oriented IP review to make sure everything had headers and
was compatibly licensed.

IIRC, that is another Software Grant.

How important is this? What percentage of existing tests need this? Can
you just use the Adobe libs or do you really need the source? For example,
you can opt in to font embedding in Apache Flex 4.8 by using the Adobe
libraries.
