If I hear you correctly, the ip-clearance directory is *NOT* the
right location for the sanselan ip clearance. The sanselan ip-
clearance document should be removed to the normal incubator status
location.
And the ip-clearance index.html documentation should refer incubating
projects to the STATUS process.
If this is correct, I'll try to update the ip-clearance documentation.

I wanted to add sanselan to the index as soon as the received document
has been ack'ed but not sooner :)

Ah, ok - I think there are some links from the incubator docs to the ip
clearance stuff, so perhaps this is all a little bit confusing.
Anyway, I think the important item is that we get the code grant
document signed :)

My point was that the index needed to be updated, not just the content
added. It would be even better if the index were generated from the set
of content.
But actually, I wasn't paying quite enough attention, because as you
noted:
> I read the page [1] and it says that this is for existing projects.
You are referring to:
This form is not for new projects. This is for projects and PMCs
that have already been created and are receiving a code donation
into an existing codebase. Any code that was developed outside of
the ASF SVN repository and our public mailing lists must be
processed like this, even if the external developer is already an
ASF committer.
The wording is awkward. The key is that the IP Clearance is a short-form
for when a codebase is not going through Incubation, and is being cleared
for immediate use within an existing ASF project. For a new project, the
Incubation STATUS document should be used.
Key concept: the IP Clearance is supposed to be a subset of the Incubation
STATUS document.

Hi Noel,
I read the page [1] and it says that this is for existing projects.
Is there a different page describing the process for incubating
projects? I couldn't find it in Policy, Roles, Process, or Guides.
Thanks,
Craig
