+ <title>Preamble</title>
+ <p>This document is the template for recording IP clearance on new
+codebases. Please store the completed document in this Incubator
+repository using a filename that reflects your project.</p>
+ <p>One of the Incubator's roles is to ensure that proper attention is
+paid to intellectual property. From time to time, an external
+codebase is brought into the ASF that is not a separate project, but
+still represents a substantial contribution that was not developed
+within the ASF's source control system. This is a short form of the
+Incubation checklist, designed to allow code to be imported with
+alacrity while still providing for oversight.</p>
+ <p>This form is not for new projects. The intent is to simply help to
+ensure, and record, that due diligence (Software Grant, CLA, Corp
+CLA, license and dependencies) has been paid to the incoming code, so
+that it can be merged into an existing project/module.</p>
+ <p>The receiving PMC is responsible for doing the work. The Incubator is
+simply the repository of the needed information. Once a PMC directly
+checks-in a filled-out short form, everything is done.</p>
+ <p>All PMCs must handle incoming code in this way. Any code that was
+developed outside of the ASF SVN repository must be processed like
+this, even if the external developer is an ASF committer.</p>
+ </section>
+ <section id='process'>
+ <title>Process</title>
+ <ol>
+ <li>
+IP Clearance processing must be executed either by an Officer
+or a Member of the ASF. <em>If you are not an Officer or a Member,
+please contact your project chair who will find an appropriate
+volunteer.</em> Incubator karma is also required. Please request
+karma from the incubator pmc if you do not have it.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+(Optional) <em>Commit an outline <a href='#form-filling'>form</a>,
+filling those parts which can be (at this stage)</em>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+A software grant must be provided to the ASF. This grant can either be
+done by the ASF Corporate CLA (via Schedule B) or the traditional
+License Agreement. Acceptable methods of sending the grant to the
+ASF includes:
+<ul>
+<li>snail-mail to the ASF office and/or ASF officer</li>
+<li>FAXing to the ASF office and/or an ASF officer</li>
+<li>Emailing the scanned document to secretary@apache.org
+ <em>and</em> legal-archive@apache.org.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+Receipt of the software grant form <strong>must</strong> be acknowledged
+by an Officer of the ASF by recording in the correct file (<em>grants.txt</em> for a License Grant
+or <em>cclas.txt</em> for a Corporate CLA). In most normal circumstances,
+the officer should be the ASF Secretary, who must be provided a copy of
+the grant or CCLA in any case (if not originally sent or Emailed
+to him).
+ </li>
+ <li>
+<strong>Note:</strong> the grant form <strong>must</strong> be acknowledged
+before continuing. If the source is referenced by checksum in the grant,
+commit the canonical tarball for the donated code into the incubator
+drop area together with a checksum and a detached signature. This will
+ensure that apache has a legal record of the grant.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+Complete and commit the <a href='#form-filling'>completed form</a>.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+Post a message to general@incubator prefixed [IP CLEARANCE] asking for
+clearance to be checked. Sign off is by lazy consensus so wait at least
+72 hours for a -1.
+ </li>
+ <li>
+Post a [RESULT] to close the thread and let the project know that the
+code has been cleared for import.
+ </li>
+ </ol>
+ </section>
+ <section id='form-filling'>
+ <title>Filling The Form</title>
+ <p>What to do to set it up:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>copy this file and re-name it according to
+incubator/site-author/ip-clearance/${project-codebase}.html</li>
+ <li>add a row to the table at
+incubator/site-author/ip-clearance/index.html</li>
+ <li>make a snapshot of the source code available for review</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>This file should not last long in place before it is moved to the
+successful incubation area. The sole purpose is to ensure that IP is
+cleared so that the codebase can be merged into the ASF SVN.</p>
+ <p>For this file:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>substitute the XYZ name with the real one</li>
+ <li>fill in the description</li>
+ <li>fill in the work items</li>
+ <li>remove this notice</li>
+ <li>set a proper "title" element for the html page</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>When a work item is done, place the date in the supplied space.</p>
+ <p><em>On the first edit of this file, please delete this notice.</em></p>
