Hi, Changing my vote to +0. Thanks for your answers. I still have some concerns, and looking at the vote thread / your mailing list, I cannot see any discussion about any potential IP issues. It is not possible from the information provided to determine if the PMC has taken the required steps

Hi John, Thank you for your vote! In executing and filing the SGA Couchbase asserts that it "owns or has sufficient rights to contribute the software source code and other related intellectual property". And I'm sure that Couchbase did not execute the SGA without exercising due diligence befo

Hi, A few questions: - Where was this code original developed and who worked on it? There is only a couple of commits in that repro, so it doesn’t seem to have been developed there. - Why does the code have ASF headers on it before being donated? Were any 3rd party headers removed? - Have all c
