Hi all,
here at OFBiz we'd like to go on with the IP-clearance effort but, since
we are going to contact *many* developers, we would like to be sure that
the steps we'll perform are the correct ones.
Anyone here could help us to answer these questions? If not, could you
please post a message to the legal-discuss list (it is only open to ASF
committers) to see if we can get some feedback from them?
Thanks so much,
Jacopo

David,
maybe you are right... but the past contributions were made to the OFBiz
project not to the ASF.
Are we sure we should use the ASF iCLA as is?

Hi all,
I have a question for you: what is the iCLA template we should
collect from the OFBiz's contributors? The one here:
http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt
?
If so, maybe I'm wrong but... I don't see how this document will
address the change from a BSD to ASL license since it clearly states
that the CLA is for "present and future Contributions submitted to
the (Apache Software) Foundation".
Am I missing something?
I don't know if those words have any loaded meanings from a legal
perspective, but I think "present" would include "past" contributions
in the sense that at present they are part of the code base.
Or perhaps that isn't a safe way of looking at it?
