FWIW, another open source project I work with a lot (a JBoss community project based out of Switzerland) just conducted a review of copyright and license issues and has decided to implement a Contributor's Agreement pretty much identical to the Clojure / Oracle CA (with the only exception to the process being that they will allow scanned, signed CAs to be emailed to the project team). As noted elsewhere in this thread, written CAs are actually pretty common in large, successful open source projects... -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://getrailo.com/ An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
