Adrian,

This is a good question, and one that concerns me because I have heard the same from a couple of others.

If it was sent very recently the best thing to do is wait. If it has been more than 2 weeks something else has likely happened and all I can say is that perhaps the best idea is to send it in again. Short of the Apache Committers page reference below I don't know of any way to find out more details.

I assume that if there is something wrong with a CLA that some sort of response about it will be sent, and hopefully by email, but I don't know.

I appreciate everyone's patience with this...

-David

One part of this move is a license clearance process so that OFBiz can be licensed through the ASF, and under the Apache 2.0 license. To do this each contributor to OFBiz needs to submit a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) to the Apache Software Foundation.

Here is the page where the ASF keeps track of CLAs received. The top of the page has a list of those with commit privileges and the project(s) they are associated with. The bottom has a list of all who have submitted a CLA but do not have commit access on any project.
