Also, does this question even make sense? Neither the SGA not the iCLA "transfers" any rights to the ASF. We don't ask for copyright. We just ask for a license. But it is non-exclusive. So if anyone thinks this refers to something that actually requires a "transfer" of copyright, please speak up, so we can track this down. -Rob >> How long do we host software without explicitly stating we have these >> rights? >> >> Personally I think 1 year is more than enough, even for OpenOffice. >> > > Our practice has been to not check in code until after an SGA has been > received, e.g., the main OOo contribution from Oracle, the Symphony > contribution from IBM and the UOF 2.0 contribution from CS2C. > > So I assume we just need to fill in a date here in the "copyright" section: > > http://incubator.apache.org/projects/openofficeorg.html > > But what date?
