Re: [MENTORS] Advice on LICENSE/NOTICE for Shaded Dependencies

[Stephen Mallette <sp...@gmail.com>]

Just thought I'd bump this to the top of the list again.  I'd really like
to get LICENSE/NOTICE solid for the next release.  If there are no mentors
sure of an answer, I'll take the question to general@incubator and see if a
anyone in that larger audience has the answer.  Or if there is a better
place to go than that, please let me know.

Re: [MENTORS] Advice on LICENSE/NOTICE for Shaded Dependencies

It's not that we're not sure of an answer...it's that we were all at
ApacheCon at that time ;) and many of us are still at conferences, so
our response times are quite long right now. It'll get better in the
coming weeks.

If you need solid advice on licensing and compliance, I suggest you
reach out to Justin McClean or Marvin Humphrey (both ASF and IPMC
members), as they are very knowledgeable in this field.

With regards,
Daniel.
