Can you attach the file to the Jira issue? You'll notice when you attach a file 
to the issue you then have the option of selecting the "Grant license to ASF 
for inclusion in ASF works (as per the Apache License)" checkbox.

(The "Attach Files" option is under the More Actions dropdown on the issue page)
