Hi John, I have already sent my ICLA form to the ASF through the facsimile; please update me whether you receive the document correctly or not. Also within next few days I will update patch files based on our work.
When you send your feed back about our work, please provide some guidelines for the questions that I mentioned in my previous mails.
