Hi,

The LF Technical Advisory Board is taking a look at the history of
UMN's contributions and their associated research projects. At present,
it seems the vast majority of patches have been in good faith, but we're
continuing to review the work. Several public conversations have already
started around our expectations of contributors[1].
