[IMPORTANT] Please file your CLA with the ASF

As part of the transition to the ASF, we'll be moving the source code repository to Apache infrastructure.  In order to continue to commit after the repository is migrated, each current committer and partial committer will need to have an iCLA on file with the ASF.

We aren't sure when the cutover date will be, but it may be as soon as the next couple of weeks.  To prepare for that, I'd like to encourage everyone who has not done so to file a iCLA with the ASF *today*.  Don't wait.  Do it now.

You can find filing information here:
http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas

If you are unsure if you already have filed an iCLA, you can check here: 
http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html

To learn more about the CLA registration process, see:
http://www.apache.org/dev/committers.html#cla-registration

After the cutover, you will *not* be able to commit to Subversion unless you have filed the appropriate paperwork with the ASF, so please do so as quickly as possible.

Thanks,
-Hyrum

Does section 7 of the CLA has any impact on the way we commit patches  
provided by non-committers (e. g. marking the patch as "Submitted in  
behalf of a third-party: [named here]" or checking restrictions)?

Greg may be able to better speak to this point, but I believe the answer is "no".  Sometime prior to the cutover, the plan is to batch-create new committer accounts for folks which don't yet have them (and have submitted their CLAs).  We'll also tweak the appropriate bits for people who are already committers to other projects to also be affiliated with Subversion.

Same here.  At http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html, I'm listed
as "apr, apr-pmc" under SVN projects.  Will I have to do anything new to
get Subversion added to that list next to my name?

I also have signed an ICLA and send it to the ASF some time ago to be

lgo raises hand. I've signed an ICLA and filed it with the ASF some
time ago to be able to contribute to serf.

Correct.

If somebody has filed a CLA (now, or in the past), but doesn't have an
account, then I'll include them in a batch account request.

... and, per Greg's message to general@incubator the other day, you will
not be able to participate in the PMC (aka PPMC, aka "equivalent of
s-f-c") after the cutover unless you have filed a CLA.

So, inactive committers that wish to remain on the PMC should also
submit their ICLAs.

Daniel
(I suppose we'll keep s-f-c around for svncorp-related discussions and
votes, but move project issues --- e.g., voting committers in --- to the
PMC list.)

It can't hurt, and if you're offered commit access you'll be required to 
sign a CLA before that commit access is enabled.

(I sent my CLA last week, Craig/Sam processed it within <12 hours;
thanks to them.)

<raises hand up>  I suppose those with neither full nor partial
committer access will need to wait for such access rights before
applying?

Thanks, Hyrum.

Note: there is a delay between filing the ICLA, when you get your
account created, and when the authz file is modified to allow for your
commit. This is why filing *today* is better than the cutover date.

Cheers,

*All* committers are invited to file an ICLA if they would like to
continue committing after we move. So yes, please file an ICLA.

I'm going to set up a Google Spreadsheet shortly to map names to
old/new usernames (in case you'd like to change it during the move).
People can enter their requested names. I'll use that sheet for my
requests to root@apache for accounts once the ICLAs are recorded.
We'll probably do several batches, so don't worry if you miss "the
first batch".

Cheers,
-g

ps. for now, we just aren't packaging contrib/ into 1.7, but there
isn't any consensus yet on what to do with it

At one time there was a thought to remove the contrib scripts which
is where most people have partial contributor rights (including me).

Should we still file an iCLA?

I know I haven't contributed enough to even remotely be considered
for wider access, but hope to someday change that...
