Hi Ed, Once the Fineract podling accepts the donation, they would need to follow the IP Clearance guidelines found at [1]. The process for Fineract to accept the contribution is up to them, but they would likely vote on it, and expect Apache ICLAs from each of the contributors to the project (Its not clear if the ICLAs you mention are Apache ICLAs or Mifos Initiative ICLAs).
