Hello, I'd need some advice regarding some issue we have with Apache Amber. The project has been on incubator fro a while and we would like to try to graduate. Problem is we have been stuck with a legal issue. The problem is more or less the follow (this is the short version):
An OAuth 2.0 project, LeeLoo, was being developed by Newcastle Uni. We invited them to join the Amber project with their code. That code was committed to the repo before a grant was provided by Newcastle Uni, whose copyright is on the code. In order to better explain the overall situation in details I have dug a bit in the mailing list in order to provide a timeline of what has been happening. 10/10 First mention of Leeloo [0] 11/10 Introduction of Leeloo to Amber list [1] 11/10 Moving Leeloo code to Apache repository [2] 12/10 Maciej/Lukasz signed ICLA [3] 12/10 IP clearance for Leeloo contribution [4] 12/10 AMBER-11/AMBER-12 Leelo donation 07/11 IP clearance and first release [5] 09/11 Waiting from reply from the University [6] 01/12 ASF license and copyrights [7] Now IANAL and I am kind of new in Apache but as long as I understand we are stuck at the IP clearance: http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/amber-leeloo.htm<http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/amber-leeloo.html>l Am I correct? Is there any other thing we can do rather then rewrite the code from scratch ?
