This would mean anyone who has signed the Sun Contributor Agreement or is an employee of a company that has (ie. Sun). I'm glad you brought this up. I'm working on establishing test resources on opensolaris.org (ie. self-service testing and test farm), and need a way to limit who gets access, since I won't be able to support everyone with an OpenSolaris user name. I'm targeting non-Sun code contributors (ie. OpenSolaris users that can putback to the OpenSolaris code base and don't work for Sun). Your redefinition points things in the right direction for this. Alternatively, since "Contributor" is already defined. How about "Code Contributor"?
