question on patches submitted to JIRA vs. Review Board
Do patches need to be attached to a JIRA before they can be applied or is
it sufficient to submit the code through review board? This is more a
legal question. Does submitting code through RB mean they are submitting
the code to Apache in the same way it means this for JIRA?

They *must* upload them to JIRA. Jarek is correct.

I believe that by uploading the patch to JIRA, the contributor is explicitly granting ASF the right to use the patch. We used to have an explicit grant button on JIRA, but it got removed as granting the license is now "implied" by simply attaching the patch to JIRA. I don't think that the same applies on review board and hence I would guess that the patch needs to be attached to JIRA. I would love to hear others thoughts!
