The March 1 CLA deadline for CLAs is approaching quickly.
As you are aware, all committers working on Apache Software Foundation projects are required to have a CLA filed with the ASF. This document clearly defines the terms under which intellectual property has been contributed to the ASF and thereby allow us to defend the project should there be a legal dispute regarding the software at some future time.
Every committer is responsible for ensuring a CLA is on file with the ASF by March 1, 2004. Any committer that does not have a CLA on file will have their committer privs suspended.
To check to see if one is on file for you, please look here :
http://www.apache.org/~jim/committers.html
If your name is *not* in italics, there is no CLA on file. f you are not listed as having a CLA on file, read about it and get one :
http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas
and follow the instructions. It's really easy.
Please direct all questions and problems to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
or the public list if you don't mind public discussion of your situation.
We will do what we can to help resolve any issues that arise. Silence on this issue isn't an option. The ASF is working to tie up any IP-related loose-ends, and this is an important one - they will suspend commit privs.
Thanks
