Frank since there is an overlap with the geotools IRC meeting, I may ask
you to drop
by and answer questions from the module maintainers that are actually
doing the work
of the IP check.
Frankly we are a little in the dark about what is needed in this
respect, any chance
of getting a checklist that couple be applied to each module?
If this is covered somewhere already please let me know.
Jody,
Please feel free to ping me in #osgeo when the geotools meeting starts and
I'll join over there. The Incubator has adopted:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Code_Provenance_Review
as our first draft procedure for copyright review. It basically mandates
a "human" review of every source file, ensuring that there are appropriate
copyright headers in place in each file and that there are no apparent
copyright violation concerns. A review document should be created for
submission to the Incubator before a project can complete incubation.
My effort at this for GDAL is at:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/GDAL_Provenance_Review
The effort for GDAL is still incomplete (none of the raster formats
have been reviewed) and there are a number of items that need to be
resolved before GDAL could be considered to have passed the review.
Best regards,
--
