Allen, a couple things I just noticed in examining the patch closer:

1) You did check the box to allow your patch to be included in ASF works
2) But there is a copyright notice in the Java source file

Per the ASF policies, a copyright in a project's NOTICE file is fine,
but we don't place copyrights in the source files. For more details,
please see the following, specifically 1.1 and 1.2:

http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#headers

Furthermore, item 2 on that same page shows the appropriate Apache
License blurb that should be included in source files.

It would be great if you could attach a new patch to the issue that:
a) removes the copyright from the Java source file, and, b) includes
the proper license header.
