> Given it was already had a ASF license header and from a ASF project why was IP clearance even needed? I assume the person involved has signed a ICLA?
The individual contributors all submitted an ICLA and a CCLA for the company is already present. We were following IP clearance because the written software was developed outside of the ASF version control system (company internal VCS). After that, we squashed everything into a single commit and submitted it as a PR to Celix. Would IP clearance be necessary in this case (duplication of an already existing component)? Would IP clearance be necessary for new components which already have ASF headers in place?
