Hi Incubator community, Seems I’m a bit confused about one step in the process. After some offline checks and internal discussion, we concluded that—because the Rust client is a sub-project under Apache Spark and the Spark PMC vote has already passed <https://lists.apache.org/thread/mj3ggbsqhjr2lblffmyn1rq5zcfckcrn>—we could go ahead and merge the initial import PR to the new repository: https://github.com/apache/spark-connect-rust once we have the ICLA confirmations for all four contributors.
If I’ve misunderstood any part of the donation workflow, please let me know; otherwise I plan to merge the first PR within the next 48 hours. Thanks for your help!! :) Best, Yuanjian On Fri, Jul 18, 2025 at 12:59 AM Yuanjian Li <liyuanj...@apache.org> wrote: > The Apache Spark PMC has voted to accept the donation of the > “spark-connect-rs” > > codebase <https://github.com/sjrusso8/spark-connect-rs> (Rust client for > Spark Connect) from its original authors. > > IP-Clearance file: https: > //svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/public/trunk/content/ip-clearance/spark-connect-rust.xml > > All four contributors have ICLAs on file: > > • Steve Russo – Filed 2025-06-25 > > • Stephen Carman – Filed 2025-06-25 > > • Alexander Brassel – Filed 2025-07-03 > > • Irfan Ghat – Filed 2025-07-04 > > > No corporate copyright claims exist; LICENSE and NOTICE have been > prepared, and an Apache RAT scan shows no incompatible files. > > Please vote to approve this IP clearance. > > Voting will be open for at least 72 hours and requires 3 binding +1s from > Incubator PMC members. > > > [ ] +1 Approve > > [ ] 0 No opinion > > [ ] -1 Disapprove (please explain why) > > > Thanks, > > Yuanjian Li > > (on behalf of the Apache Spark PMC) >
