I wonder what that means, I was planning to commit the code directly into git, is that the public record?

Yes I believe  we do need the CLA first.  According to 
http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#poding-ip-clearance

Initial Code Dump

For corporate contributions, the SGA or CCLA MUST be completed, 
submitted and received before the code is imported.

For contributions composed of patches from individual contributors, it 
is safe to import the code once the major contributors (by volume) have 
completed ICLAs or SGAs.

In either case, the code to be imported should be attached to a JIRA and 
then imported. It is recommended that the previous version control 
system is tagged so that the imported version is precisely known.

A public record MUST be made of the code imported. If the import is not 
attached to JIRA then it MUST be committed to version control.

Thanks Kathey for setting up the infrastructure.

Here's the link to the archives:

http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-quarks-dev/

and they are working.

What are the next steps to get the code in?

I've not used git at Apache so it's going to be a learning experience:

I found this: http://www.apache.org/dev/git.html

I wonder though if there is anything more advanced, having patch files
seems a touch out of date compared to a pull request at github where
it's very easy to browse to review the code and add general comments
or a comment specific to a line.

Thanks,
Dan.
