Hi Rob, If you developed the code during the time the ICLA and CCLA were in effect (from February 2012) I don't see a need to file additional paperwork.

I have an ICLA on file for myself and Cray filed a CCLA for me when I originally joined the Apache Jena project as a committer and PMC member. In this scenario is a SGA actually needed to carry out IP Clearance of the contributed code or are the existing ICLA and CCLA sufficient? > > Thanks, > > Rob Vesse Craig L Russell Architect, Oracle http://db.apache.org/jdo 408 276-5638 mailto:[email protected] P.S. A good JDO? O, Gasp!
