Who says there is no way to combine legal protection and non-absurd procedures?
For example: community votes for a release, RM tags a release (and prepares
files), pmc rubber-stamps it with 'ACK' within 72 hours (a-la PMC composition
change process), done.
And the big one. The main goal ASF exists for is fostering software development
communities. With second goal being software released in the process. And the
legal part here is an *evil necessity*, it is *not* a goal.
lack of legal protection can be pretty detrimental to a software
development community. i'd say it's an essential, non-secondary part
of the ASF's fostering of dev communities.
