CLAs : Deadline is March 1, 2004 to avoid suspension of commit privs

[Geir Magnusson Jr <ge...@4quarters.com>]

Jakarta Committers,

The March 1 CLA deadline for CLAs is approaching quickly.

As you are aware, all committers working on Apache Software Foundation 
projects are required to have a CLA filed with the ASF.  This document 
clearly defines the terms under which intellectual property has been 
contributed to the ASF and thereby allow us to defend the project 
should there be a legal dispute regarding the software at some future 
time.

Every committer is responsible for ensuring a CLA is on file with the 
ASF by March 1, 2004.  Any committer that does not have a CLA on file 
will have their committer privs suspended.

To check to see if one is on file for you, please look here :

    http://www.apache.org/~jim/committers.html

If your name is *not* in italics, there is no CLA on file. f you are 
not listed as having a CLA on file, read about it and get one :

    http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas

and follow the instructions.  It's really easy.

Please direct all questions and problems to

     pmc@jakarta.apache.org

or the public list if you don't mind public discussion of your 
situation.

We will do what we can to help resolve any issues that arise.  Silence 
on this issue isn't an option.  The ASF is working to tie up any 
IP-related loose-ends, and this is an important one - they will suspend 
commit privs.

Thanks

geir, writing on behalf of the Jakarta PMC
