   I think an IP clearance is not necessary here. Last time we had a big chunk of work a summary of the reasoning was: "Thales already signed a CCLA, $contributor already signed an ICLA and the work already contains Apache License v2 headers, so no IP clearance is necessary". To rephrase from back then:
   
   > I would think that if the person who submits the PR has the rights to make that contribution, then their ICLA should cover that. See https://www.apache.org/licenses/contributor-agreements.html for more info.
   
   And 'the rights to make that contribution' being that Thales already has a CCLA submitted and $contributor being allowed to submit contributions. From the ASF its perspective I'd say we are okay here.
   
   Thread when starting an IP clearance procedure for the websocket admin:

   In this thread:
   - Justin Mclean is VP incubator (new projects entering the ASF and learning how to be an Apache project)
   - Matt Sicker is Secretary for the ASF (archiving legal documents like ICLAs, CCLAs and SGAs)
