Removing vs cleaning up donation code
Mentors,
Early in incubation of Airavata, we first bought the code originally licensed to Extreme Lab, Indiana University with proper CCLA and Software Grant on file and transferred the IP. The code was initially imported to [1] and then cleaned of all license headers, changed package names and checked into trunk. If we were to keep the donations area, we need to the repeat the task of changing license headers and so on. This code will not build correctly as the GPL dependency parts were removed before checking into SVN. Can we remove the stale code in donation area and just add a README pointing to the source forge svn [2] where the code is imported from?
If its absolutely necessary to have the donated code in as-is form, we can do the clean up but I am not seeing if the time spent will be worth it.
Suggestions?
Cheers,
Suresh

Thanks Chris.
I will wait for couple more days to see if others have a different opinion, otherwise I will godhead and remove the donation code and add README on Monday.

+1 Suresh, your proposed plan (including the readme), seem fine to me.
