I will be honest: I have no idea what this whole debate is about. From the vote within the PMC, it's clear that the consensus is to fold the code in, that we are satisfied that we are covered, IP-wise, due to Graham's iCLA on file as well as other guarantees noted in the (long) thread regarding the code submission. So what is the problem?? That someone doesn't like the result of the vote and is hoping to have it overturned, somehow?? I also fail to see how this codebase is any different from other modules which we've folded in from "outside" like mod_proxy_html and Paul's various heartbeat/cluster stuff which came in with hardly any debate and certainly not dragging legal into it all...
