Presumably the company required that the person doing the work commit
this work or cause this work to be committed to the project. That
seems like the person agreeing to this is crossing their wires a bit
since Apache contribution is supposed to be on an individual level
(although there are plenty of examples of partisanship masquerading as
personal initiative).
If "the person" is me and "the company" is SURF, I have already
commented in another reply that the work is about a feature already
planned into the roadmap by the community.
From my point of view, this means that SURF asking to commit this work
into the project's repository - instead of keeping it secret somewhere
else - is actually a good thing.
Do you still think I am crossing any wire? Can you please elaborate? Thanks.
Regards.

How is possible that a company requires the ASF to put it in the
source repository. Isn't this a community decision ?
