After clearing up some questions and getting an SGA from IBM to make sure, the IP Clearance of the "Atomos Codebase" contribution passes. We will proceed to incorporate the code in Felix. regards, Karl -- Karl Pauls karlpa...@gmail.com -

CCLAs simply tell us that a company is aware that their employees are contributing to ASF projects. They don't really help much in the way of getting code transitioned here. I think the problem at the root is the fact that the code was relicensed, removing IBM specific headers. If the code never
