New modules that are developed elsewhere and are being donated to Apache have to to through the Intellectual Property clearance as per https://incubator.apache.org/guides/ip_clearance.html The recent Mojohaus utilities contribution was handled like that, http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/netbeans-mojohaus-utilities.html - search this list for more details on how that happened. If all authors have an iCLA on file with Apache and declare that they are authorized to make the contribution, no additional paperwork is required. If the contribution belongs to an external entity, a Software Grant must be filed. For future modules the best IMO is to create a whiteboard / drafts code repository where people can experiment - if those contributions are entirely developed at Apache there's no additional process. -Bertrand --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
