- <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>

- <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>
