Hi Craig,
These two sentences in that section are what threw me off:
"Check and make sure that the papers that transfer rights to the ASF been
received. It is only necessary to transfer rights for the package, the
core code, and any new code produced by the project."
"Check and make sure that the files that have been donated have been
updated to reflect the new ASF copyright."
It'll be great to clean up that wording to say that what's required is a
license and not "new ASF copyright".
Thanks!
Sanjiva.

The only place I found (after a quick review) where you might infer
copyright transfer is that there is a section named "Copyright".
This could be changed to "License".
Are there other places that imply that a copyright grant is required?

I was looking at:

It seems to imply that we require copyright transfer as part of the IP
clearance process. Since when do we require copyright transfer?? I
thought we only require a license.
