Re: IP clearance and transferring Agensgraph extension repo to Apache

[Gosling Von <fe...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Great step, Kevin ~

I have seen the necessary mail list have existed[1]. We’d better let committer to be one of the mail-list moderators, this is entirely voluntary and can be called upon after they have signed the ICLA :-)

Yes, this is a very important step, It doesn't matter what license is used or not. As for IP Clearrance, we could refer to some of the processes on JIRA[2][3].


BTW, this mail is cc to dev mail list, which I have subscribe with the help of mail helper in whimsy :-)

I sent this email private@age.apache.org <ma...@age.apache.org> list, I cc'd you all since most of us haven't subscribed to mailing lists yet. I guess these lists are all we need or do we need to apply for further lists created?

The Agensgraph extension repo [1] is Apache Licensed, Is there anything we need to complete other than submitting ICLA s of all initial committers for IP clearance?
