Is the intent that you want to be able to claim copyright on VMs linking
to Harmony's VM modules?
From what I understood, Etienne is concerned that the ASF would take
his code and decide to relicense it under the Apache License 2.0 without
mentioning him and wants to be protected against that even if there is
no record nor will of anybody here of doing so.
A little paranoid maybe, but sounds reasonable to me.
