Update the IP Due Diligence Process documentation in light of October 2019 IP Policy updates
Submitted by Wayne Beaton @wbeaton
Link to original bug (#553649)
Description
We need to update the documentation.
The gist is:
- Generate a dependency list
- Scan the list to flag those entries that are "problematic"
- Engage with the IP Team to resolve those problematic entries
- Profit.
Obviously, more detail is required. I'll capture that detail here.
We intend to support the scanning part (bullet #2 (closed)) by providing a tool. This is tracked in Bug 553016. I may make that bug a blocker (theoretically, we can do this without a tool, but a tool will certainly make it easier).
