Re: [technology-pmc] [CQ 3392] lttng Version: all

I keep forgetting this step...

Technology PMC, do you have any issue with the Linux Tools project using lttng as an "exempt pre-req"?

According to the policies for 3rd party dependencies [1],

   A pre-req may be classified as "exempt" by the EMO if the software
   is pervasive in
   nature, expected to be already on the user's machine, and/or an IP
   review would be
   either impossible, impractical, or inadvisable. Exempt pre-req's can
   be approved for use
   by the EMO without IP review. Examples: Windows XP, Sun JRE.
   However, an exempt
   pre-req may be disallowed by the EMO at its discretion.

Linux Tools already has a few CQs exempt, given that the sorts of folks that would use the technology tend to have the pre-req tools installed, or can easily get them.

(In reply to comment #12)
IP Team, let's move forward with this as an exempt pre-req. Thanks.


Has the discussion happened on PMC mailing list yet Wayne?   If it hasn't or
isn't closed off, then we can leave this CQ in "awaiting PMC" state until that
happens.
Otherwise, once that discussion is resolved, please "return" this CQ to the IP
team along with the link where it took place so we can forward it to EMO for
review.

Thanks!
