Hi, Here's the second update. At the moment we are only missing ICLAs from 20 (out of 70) contributors, accounting for 31 (out of 913) commits left.

As such, I will solely rely on the ICLAs. Given the current status, I think the rest of the 31 commits is manageable for me even if I end up having to revert and rework all of them. Let me know if you have any concern on starting the IP clearance process. Otherwise I think we can start it on general@incubator soon.
