I always worry when we short-circuit the details like this: the opportunity for misunderstandings is there :) If and only if you fill out schedule B of a CCLA, then the CCLA also is a software grant as well as an agreement for ongoing contributions. Corollary - if as part of incubation a company sends in a CCLA *without* actually filling out schedule B, then importing a large body of existing code on which that company claims rights could be a bad idea. I don't think we should spend too much time over-documenting how to actually use these documents -- in the end the documents themselves are pretty clear. cheerio!
