> Dear Legal team, 
> There's a subproject of Hadoop called Submarine (source code: https://github.com/apache/hadoop/tree/trunk/hadoop-submarine). Submarine depends on an open-source project called TonY (from LinkedIn): https://github.com/linkedin/TonY
> The license of TonY is BSD-2 Clause license. 
> My questions:  
> 1) For TonY, can we (Hadoop committers) safely fork and embed source code of TonY in our codebase? The reason is, we want to fast iterate projects, going through PR, wait for a release will slow down our development. 
> 2) Is there any prerequisite to include source code of TonY? For example, do we need to get an agreement from LinkedIn https://www.apache.org/licenses/contributor-agreements.html#grants 
> Hope to hear back from you soon.
> Thanks,
> Wangda
