Re: Following up on board report

Hi Cesar,

Ok, sounds like you're all set.  I'd recommend that if you do run into questions like this, don't wait for a board report, just drop a line off to general@incubator.apache.org.  We'll get back to you.

Now clarifying a little bit on this one, as you mention the code is compatible, but we we were wondering if after initial code migration to ASF repositories, then another review was required. The gap closed with the release documentation. Over the past months we have got individual feedback from mentors, about the licenses.
