as far as I know, it depends on the size of the contribution -- that login verbage handles most small patches and contributions. But if you get into something like a plugin with (let's say) multiple eval-rule methods, a written/faxed CLA would be appropriate on top of that since it's a "significant" contribution. But Kelsey -- rest assured that you should have a green tick instead of the red X, I'm sure you have a CLA on file already. problem is, that's manually maintained in bugzilla, and someone hasn't gotten around to checking yet. ;) --j.
