wohali commented on issue #53: bring follow library under Nano's wing
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-nano/pull/53#issuecomment-316110105
 
 
   @glynnbird FYI, any new code to be brought under an ASF repository (and thus 
ownership) directly must go through the code clearance process as outlined here:
   
       https://incubator.apache.org/guides/ip_clearance.html
   
   It's not just a matter of "they licensed it AL v2.0 so we can just bring it 
into our repo." That may be true of dependencies (we can depend on compatibly 
licensed code with no extra paperwork) but it's not true when that code is 
going to live in our repositories.
   
   Now, that said, if Cloudant people have "maintained out" most of the 
original developers' changes, i.e. "git blame" doesn't show their contributions 
as still being in place, then we can waive that process under the outstanding 
Cloudant CCLA + jhs's outstanding ICLA. You'll need to do the legwork here to 
ensure that is the case.
