Specifically speaking, where I feel more info is needed around modifications to the BSD licensed code. None of that was in the legal resolution.

I suspect if they cut a release, which includes both source and convenience binary, and that release passes without any issues, then they are likely ready to graduate. > Thanks, > Roman. > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org > >
