[AFSCS40] Risks to release...
Chip,
In one of the emails, I saw that you said the licenses are not completely resolved. Can you send me a list of things to do? Majority of the Jira bugs on license seem to be on resolved now. So I don't have a complete picture on what else may be a risk to completing the 4.0 release.
Thanks.

Yep, sorry. Mixing the streams because Joe brought up the filings. :)
Thanks for offering to follow up on legal-discuss. I'll keep an eye open
for it.

I don't, but you are correct. AFAIK, we are good to go with the
source tree and legal documentation.

That thread was specific to the question of "config files". I'll
follow up over there specifically on that topic.

That's a different thread. Sam and Roy are talking about the export
filings. I'd agree that we should simply proceed with executing the
filing.
Joe - Do you need / want any help with it?

Chip, as far as I know, our current status is:
- Any incompatible files, or files we didn't use, have been removed or
clean-roomed
- Files from projects with an incompatible license have permission
obtained from the copyright holders
- Everything else has been checked and verified as having Citrix
provenance
Perhaps you have numbers to go along with this?
I believe we should take this status to the original config file thread on
legal-discuss, and wrap things up there.
Just checked the legal thread, and it seems that Sam and Roy are trying to
work out how to proceed.

The last action (that I can see) was by Jim J. and he took it to
legal-internal last Thursday. I've pinged him on the legal-discuss list
to see if there's been any response.
The other option, I guess, is to go ahead and prepare the filings. I've
started on that, though I would not be at all disappointed if we were
told it was unnecessary.
Best,
Joe

Thanks! I know about the ASF legal one. It's bug 55 assigned to David Nalley right now and is currently set as a blocker. I will add that to the release status page.

There was one bug that was reopened on Sunday to add a public domain
statement for the rsyslog.conf file for our LICENSE file. I completed
that this morning, so AFAIK we are now done!
I *think* the only outstanding ASF legal / policy item to resolve are
the export filings. The thread seems to have gone nowhere on
legal-discuss@a.o, after some prodding by Noah.
Noah (or others) - any ideas on how to drive that one to resolution?
