[IP-Clearance] Seeking a volunteer for Tiles Kaolin (again, and impatient)

[Antonio Petrelli-3]

Dear friends,
It's just passed a month since I requested (pretty please) a volunteer
to handle the IP clearance, for Tiles Kaolin.

I am Antonio Petrelli, PMC Member of Apache Tiles.
We would like to integrate Dimensions with the new name of "Kaolin"
inside the Tiles codebase:
http://mutidimensions.sourceforge.net/
The only developers of this projects are Aaron Roller and me. Aaron is
willing to give his software grant to donate it to ASF.

Currently I am in search of a volunteer for the IP clerance
processing. I already asked Tiles' PMC Chair (Greg Reddin) but he is
too busy to help. I already asked the Incubator mailing list, with no
answer. If anybody can help me, I will appreciate it much :-)

Thanks in advance
Antonio

the incubator helps those who help themselves ;-)

providing you prepare all the leg work, i'll take a look at it.

please start by checking an artifact containing the imported into JIRA
and then both sign and submit the software grant. once you've done
that, please fill in the form and add that as an attachment. this
needs to include a reference to the acceptance VOTE. once that's done,
reply to this thread.

Thanks Robert for this suggestion, but, I think that these suggestions
should be put inside the IP clearance page. I really could not wonder
that I had to do this.
I will do it this evening (EST).

Thanks again
Antonio

the IP clearance page is a bit of a controversial subject here ATM but
i don't really want to get into that now

the process is designed to be done by an officer. IMO filling in a
form and posting two emails isn't much to ask from a chair. the IPMC's
role is just to check that the details have been recorded. the
incubator has no role in the actual execution. everything else should
be handled by the project PMC.
