+1 to the above. > > So in the case of Dubbo, any repositories that had not been accepted into the > project already at graduation (the date of the board resolution establishing > Dubbo) would go through the IP Clearance process. I want to be more clear of the word "accepted", I assume it means that the community has reached consensus or voted to accept the repository into ASF. If that is true, all the projects that being transferred[1] have been discussed and reached consensus both by Dubbo community and IPMC, before board resolution, so IMO these projects are not needed to go through IP clearance process. There is one exception, dubbo-erlang project, which is not listed in [1]. The community has discussed[2] and reached consensus to transfer to ASF on the end of April, which is before Dubbo TLP board resolution. Therefore I think this project is not needed to go through IP clearance process as well. Please correct me if I am wrong. BTW, actually I have carefully checked the SGA/ICLA signing status before each project transfer, and recorded it on each JIRA ticket, see [3] as an example. I think it is better to add the JIRA link for each project that transferred to [1] for the record.
