Further to Mark's recommendation that we just forward the emails
granting IP to isis-dev.
We already have IP from the 5 committers (Rob, Dan, Kevin, Alexander,
Dave), via the CCLAs that each have signed.
By my reckoning there are 4 more.
This is 2 of 4: Stephan Eggermont

Hello Robert,
I'd be willing to testify that the contributions I made were my own,
and transfer copyright to ASF. Currently, they can be used under an
ASL2 license.
I welcome the move to Apache incubator.

Hi Stephan,
A long while ago you submitted a patch or two for the Naked Objects
framework. As you might be aware we are currently proposing to move
this, and some related project, into the Apache incubator. As part of
this process we need confirm the provenance of all the source, in
particular, with respect to any patches or other changes, and ensure
that we have the right to donate it to the ASF.
We're tracking down patches from others but I need to do likewise for
the IP of your own contributions made to date.
There are several ways to do this, but the one that'll involve the
least paperwork would be for you to confirm that:
a) the contributions you've made to date are original (weren't copied
from someone else's IP)
b) you are happy that these contributions become copyright of Naked
Obects Group Ltd. (who can then in turn grant rights to Apache on
behalf of everyone).
If (b) is an issue, then there are other options, eg you in turn
granting rights of your contributions to Apache; but as I say I think
that'll involve more paperwork.
I hope you can help.
Regards
Robert Matthews
