Pranav, et al. This is still problematic. For the time being, lets hold off on additional commits to this branch till we get some of the process and IP issues sorted. First, who are the authors for the code that's been committed to this branch, you mention 'a few guys in BLR', but who are they specifically? Second, as a group the project needs to decide if we want to include this feature, and if so, how we will handle inclusion. (There are a number of potential options here, the PPMC could send it through IP Clearance at the Incubator, or a Software Grant, or something more simple.) Don't be surprised if this involves deleting the branch or reverting the commits and handling submission in some other manner. --David
