Michael, IMHO it's not that archaic. There are _many_ FOSS projects which mandate a CLA of some sort (even the hippest projects like Node.js have this http://nodejs.org/cla.html). The only contention is the snail-mailing part, which I understand is cumbersome. Chef guys have opted to use Echosign for the signing purpose (http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/How+to+Contribute) and I think it's a decent compromise.
