Um no I want you to respect the license and headers of 3rd party code. I don’t 
know where that code came from, perhaps if you told me we could work out how 
best to deal with it. You seem to have confirmed it’s comes from a a 3rd party 
and not the ASF so it seems unlikely it should have an ASF header on it.

If you think that not complying with ASF licensing policy is of questionable 
value I can’t help you.

If a graduated project is found to not be complying with licensing policy they 
will be asked to comply, hopefully they will notice and fix it themselves 
before that but sometimes things slip between the cracks. And yes I have asked 
TLPs to fix things e.g. With Apache Spark as a number of incubator projects 
were copying what they were doing and it was not in line with license policy 
and they fixed it. Copying what TLPs do without understanding why things are 
done that way often causes incubating projects issues.

I also agree it would be good for other IPMC member to add their thoughts as 
well.

Thanks,
Justin
