IP clearance from University of Manchester was signed 2015-02-04.
(http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/February2015)

Taverna Software Grant received & filed 2015-02-23 (wrongly reported
as 2014-02-23 !)
http://wiki.apache.org/incubator/March2015

so let's use the second one, 2015-02-23.

I've updated http://incubator.apache.org/projects/taverna.html#Copyright


I put 2015-07-13 as the license header date, as that is when most of
the header commits seems to have been done by.


I'm not sure what to put under Verify Distribution Rights

I assume this covers just files inside our source trees, e.g. what
would go into NOTICE or LICENSE?

I think we have checked them all (Alan and Donal was doing this a year
ago), but we haven't done the necessary updates in NOTICE and LICENSE
in the git repositories which have not yet been released,
e.g. https://github.com/apache/incubator-taverna-server/blob/master/NOTICE
mentions some XSDs which are not yet declared.

Does this checklist item relate to the NOTICE files or just checking the files?

I've put 2015-01-13 for the second item, as that is when
http://dev.mygrid.org.uk/wiki/display/developer/Third-party+licenses
was last updated by Alan - but this was not formally completed.

Alan, do you think that is a reasonable date?
