In the mean time, I believe all Apache projects should treat the Board
member comments quoted above and elsewhere in this thread (and taken out

file checked in to Apache CV repositories.
It doesn't matter whether it's legally required (to get around the "this
software" interpretation) or not. It matters that the ASF Board
(representing the foudnation, which is the owner of all this code) told us
to do it that way. That's all the reason any of us should need.
I thought that we were also supposed and even encouraged to think for
ourselves. No one has suggested to defy the board. I resent the shut-
-up-and-do-as-you-are-told attitude which does not characterize you,
the ASF, nor anyone on the board. What is going on here?
