We have been able to find the original diff contributed to uimaFIT by Fabio.
The patch adds support for FlowControllers in several places in uimaFIT. The
diff is quite large (~77kb), but many changes seem to be due to reformatting
(i.e. the diff was not optimized to a minimal change set). It seems to have
been a one-time contribution by Fabio which has been integrated into uimaFIT by
Philip in a modified/extended from. The diff is attached to this issue:
http://code.google.com/p/uimafit/issues/detail?id=16
The changes were integrated in this revision along with additional related
changes by Philip:
http://code.google.com/p/uimafit/source/detail?r=257
I'd like to know how to judge if a contribution is minor (requires an ICLA) or
major (requires an SGA). Given the scope and one-time nature of the
contribution, I'd be inclined to call it a minor contribution which would call
for an ICLA (potentially CCLA, depending if Fabio thinks an employer at the
time could claim ownership).
Best,
