I know it's recommended that I create an automated IP log from [http://wiki.eclipse.org/Development_Resources/Automatic_IP_Log here], or if for some funky reason that isn't working, I can create it manually based on this [http://www.eclipse.org/projects/dev_process/project-log.php template].

− | Well, we look at a few things so maybe a good idea to parse it out.
| + | |
− | a) We check your committer list to make sure it matches what we have in our database.
| + | |
− | b) The contribution section to should uniquely identify the component (CVS directory), bug # (description if there is no bug # or if there are multiple bug #s), contributor's name, contribution size (LOC), committer who committed this contribution.
| + | |
− | c) In the third party software section, we look for CQ numbers, package names and associated licenses. Then we check to make sure that all the CQs listed for the move / graduation have been resolved and fixed as approved. We sometimes end up having quite a bit of feedback with projects on this section, so we've put together another handy [http://wiki.eclipse.org/images/5/57/Project_Graduation_or_Move_v5F.pdf flowchart] that addresses the most common scenarios.
