I think the answer is that every person from that group sends in the grant paperwork. The legal-discuss mailing list is probably where to query for an authoritive answer. I think that the receiving PMC is the body responsible for figuring this stuff out, so they should probably be CCed in (sorry, don't know top-of- head which PMC is for FOP). http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html Is the base URL for incubator-related IP stuff information. cheers, Leo --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
