Roman, Justin, and Marvin, Thank you for the comments. I could make sure what we should do during the Incubation process for IP issues.

Makoto, could you please clarify one way > or the other? Those five guys are not AIST employees but individuals who sent patches to Hivemall. So, we need to get SGA from them accroding to http://incubator.apache.org/guides/mentor.html#initial-import-code-dump 2016-08-24 9:49 GMT+09:00 Marvin Humphrey <mar...@rectangular.com>: > Another detail is that very small contributions may not be copyrightable and > thus may not require relicensing. Again, that can be dealt with later. Some of them made very small patches (e.g., fixing typo or so). We would like to discuss about it in the Incubation process, later. 2016-08-24 7:11 GMT+09:00 Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com>: >> I think what we have to do is listing Copyrights and Licenses in NOTICE file >> as seen in >> https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/NOTICE#L86 >> >> Is my understanding right? > > No, that notice file is IMO a poor example to copy from. > MIT and BSD licenses need to be mentioned in LICENSE not NOTICE [1], > Apache licensed software generally only needs to be mentioned in NOTICE if it > has it’s own NOTICE file.

I'll list all copyrights and licenses in NOTICE file and LICENSE file respectively, following the way in https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/NOTICE#L86 https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/LICENSE#L232 Just in case, I'll clarify in the goal section of our Incubation proposal: - get I-CLA from the initial committers - get SGA from other individuals not listed in the initial committers and AIST. - list all copyrights and licenses in NOTICE file and LICENSE file, respectively. The above tasks are to be done during the incubation. Any other concerns to be discussed?
