I agree with Justin. The lack of an SGA makes this ineligible for the normal lazy consensus route. The fact that 1 of the chunks of code you're looking at is licensed under the EPL is a further blocker. You can't relicense it without explicit permission from the owner, preferably memorialized as a SGA. While I don't think that the IP Clearance process is perfectly rigid, it is a process and this one is missing some significant parts of that process. --David --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
