It means that IBM gave (granted) permissions for their code to the Apache Software Foundation (specifically, a copyright and patent license).

We do not need to indicate that license in the package, since the UIMA work is wholly sublicensed under ASL 2.0. ~tom == ¸.·´¯`·.´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸><(((º> OSAS @ Red Hat University Outreach || Fedora Special Projects || Fedora Legal _______________________________________________ legal mailing list legal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/legal
