The required IP clearance questions should be:
Date:
Identify the Contribution:
Identify the Contributor(s):
What are the filenames for the applicable
software grant(s):
Corporate CLA(s):
Individual CLA(s):
Location of initial import:
Destination PMC:
That's it.
One more;
Determine www.a.o/licenses/exports implications
for notifications.
No. That is not part of IP clearance, sorry, and I will not repeat all
of the process associated with being a chair within something as trivial
as a secretarial function (connecting the dots between the legal
paperwork
and import). We have better places to document the role of a chair.
Robert's separation of guide and template was a good start, though my
version of the template is much smaller. This is not a legal document.
This is, at most, a secretarial function that is being done so that
we have a place to look for dotted i's and crossed t's.
