Hi Larry, Thank you for the automated install script and the nice write-up, this will be a valuable feature for the project and community.
Before we can start using the script(s) and include it in a future release there are a couple of more steps to properly deal with IP clearance, 1 - submitting new contribution's through jira. Jira is our feature, bug-tracker which is used to handle initial contributions. I've created a jira issue on the automated install: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VCL-587 If you don't have account, it's fairly easy to create. Once logged in, select the issue or the above link, choose more options and select attach files. In the attach files dialogue, upload your script(s) and select "Grant license to ASF for inclusion in ASF works as per the apache license". If you have trouble editing it, let me know, I might need to own the issue to you. 2 - iCLA - Individual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA) It looks like your following the steps listed here: https://cwiki.apache.org/VCL/becoming-a-committer.html So you might have already signed and submitted secret...@apache.org - and it's being processed. If not, since this is a substantial contribution, please sign and submit the iCLA. Also thanks for your interest in becoming a committer, I'll start a discussion thread with the other project management committee members, which would then lead to a vote thread. Thanks again and I think we all look forward to working more with you to help advance Apache VCL.
