Hello, One last thing, the IP clearance process [1] requires the following:
Remind active committers that they are responsible for ensuring that a Corporate CLA is recorded if such is required to authorize their contributions under their individual CLA. So, since the University of Nantes is one of the distribution right holders, I think a CCLA from them is required. Also I see Nicolas Hernandez and Fabien Poulard have a recorded ICLA, while Matthieu Vernier seems to have not, so I would ask Nicolas to please ensure Matthieu sends his signed ICLA as well.
