It should be fine, you could write something like this in your next report: the IP clearance process is now complete given that: 1) FreeMarker was already licensed under the ASL 2.0 2) Software License Agreements have been collected (and have been filed by the ASF Secretary) for the former copyright owners that are no more active and involved in the project 3) Contributor License Agreements have been collected (and have been filed by the ASF Secretary) for the main contributors of the project, that are now committers of the incubating project 4) notices in the project mailing lists and website have been published to announce that the project is now incubating @ASF and to invite potential contributors to participate in the new home 5) license headers have been updated to reflect the new copyright To all, please review my notes above and correct them if you see any errors.
