Craig Russell commented on INCUBATOR-74:
----------------------------------------

Three things that might be relevant in helping the PMC decide whether to accept 
the contribution, or more rubbish:

I'd like to know if there is any connection between the contribution and an 
existing product (commercial or otherwise).

I'd like to know if the contribution reads on any patents known to the 
contributor. The grant does address patents owned by the contributor, but it 
would still be good to know what they are and if there are any other patents 
that are known to the contributor.

I'd like to know if the contribution is subject to export controls due to 
encryption technology. 

With regard to the suggested template 
http://incubator.apache.org/ip-clearance/httpd-mod_domain-clearance.html is 
there any reason that the files should not have http links to the svn repo 
where they reside?

> IP Clearance Template is rubbish
