I think that would be nice, although not mandatory to preserve the history.

Even if that history contains the previous GPL licensed version of the code base?

What's more important is that we be able to verify that all the code is clean from an intellectual property point of view: <http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/index.html >

So IIUC one prerequesite to getting the code into the Apache repository is having CLAs on file for all contributors? How do we know what the status is in that respect?

Okay, according to <http://people.apache.org/~jim/committers.html> CLAs are on file for myself, Damien, and Jan. Noah Slater's is still not listed although he has supposedly faxed in the form weeks ago. The remaining two guys from the proposal I don't even know, they're no longer active in the community AFAIK.

I talked to Will Beh and while he seemed interested, he said he is short on time. I suggest starting without him. He can get back on board at any time anyway. Or am I mistaken here? As far as I know, the CouchDB source currently does not include any contribution by him anyway. Dirk Schalge, a friend of mine says, via instant message, that we should remove him from the list of initial contributers. His contributions have been moved out of the CouchDB repository quite a while ago.

Cheers,
Jan
