Hello Rémi:
The IP Team will apply the Parallel IP [1] process to the initial Contribution Questionnaire (CQ) in order to get the project up and running as quickly as possible. That is our standard operating procedure. The Initial IP Request submission is intended to encompass all project code that is being contributed to the project as part of project kickoff. Should you not include certain modules at this time, you will not be able to check them in until you request further IP review. We fully expect project committers to continue to develop the codebase while the IP Team completes full due diligence review. As you prepare your submission, the following may be helpful: * You may provide more than one attachment to the initial CQ in the order to represent the structure of the content if you wish * Please adhere to the Eclipse Namespace Policy [2] * Please ensure the necessary copyright and license headers are in place [3] * Do not include third party content with the project code CQ. Separate third party CQs for the project’s third party dependencies [4] must be filed separately. * All Third Party CQs will receive Type A IP Review (License Compatibility Check) only during the onboarding process (again in order to get the project up and running as quickly as possible) [1] https://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/Parallel_IP_Process [2] https://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/The_Eclipse_Code_Namespace_Policy [3] https://eclipse.org/legal/copyrightandlicensenotice.php [4] https://eclipse.org/org/documents/Eclipse_Policy_and_Procedure_for_3rd_Party_Dependencies_Final.pdf We hope this helps and we look forward to working with you and the sensiNact project. Sharon Corbett IP Team From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rémi Druilhe Sent: April-19-17 4:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [incubation] Questions related to the initial contribution Hello, We received the first commiters status on the newly created sensiNact project. We sh=ould soon provide the initial contribution for IP review. We just had a small meeting with the team and we have some questions. Our project is mainly composed of, at least, 2 larges subprojects, i.e., a client and a server. Thus, we would like to know what is the better way to proceed for the IP review. Should we submit the two subprojects or should we do it incrementally (the server and then the client). I know there is the parallel IP process <https://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/HOWTO/Parallel_IP_Process> we could ask for but I don't know if this is relevant for this case. To accelerate the IP review, we are not going to submit all the modules in the initial contribution. It will also let us put in the right format our existing code and still start the IP review process. Is a new module (or in the future a new feature) must always be sent for IP review? According to the Eclipse Legal Process <https://www.eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster.pdf> , we could just submit a minimal set of code of the project (initial commit on page 2) and then commit everything else using the normal process (page 1, Figure 1). And the last question. We have at least 2 subprojects. We saw that it is possible to create new repositories (cf. https://wiki.eclipse.org/Git#Creating_a_new_repository). Can we ask for others repositories to host subprojects (e.g., the client, the server, etc.)? It will ease the project management because we are not using the same technologies on the subprojects. Or should we request for a new Eclipse project in order to have a separated GIT repository? Thanks, Best regards. -- Rémi DRUILHE Phone: +33 (0) 6 87 17 93 77
