RE: [tools-pmc] Contribution Questionnaire - Tools PMC Approval for GEF contribution 
Doug,

Good point. The relevant lines out of the IP Policy state:

	(3) the EMO, the PMC Lead and the Committer have determined that 
	the Content is important to achieving the Project Plan (as that 
	term is defined in the Development Process) and Purposes ( as 
	the term is defined in the Bylaws) of the Eclipse Foundation; and 
	(4) both the Eclipse Foundation Board (or the Board's designee 
	specifically authorized for this responsibility) and the applicable 
	PMC (as that term is defined in the Development Process) have 
	reviewed and approved the use of the proposed alternative terms 
	and conditions.

So basically the role of the PMC is to be satisfied that the code is
actually important to the project. Which you did in this case.
