Note, podlings are free to check in IP that is dubious from a *policy*
perspective (i.e. incompatible with Apache License), but should not, as
I see it, check in anything that is dubious from a *legal* one (i.e. it
is not and should not be public, or we don't have *any* rights to
distribute). While we may not consider putting stuff into SVN as
publishing or distributing, others might not agree with that.

I've not heard of anyone demanding us to remove something from SVN
entirely, and I believe that would be a very painful exercise. Best is
to make sure it is only license compatibility issues that exist before
code is checked in.
