I'm sure, Bertrand can add something regarding the general IP question, but as far as user agents are concerned, I can only repeat what I said in my talks. They are common knowledge and come from the device (unless somebody made one up for whatever reason;-) So while actually committing to devicemap-data in the repository requires a contributor agreement, I am not aware of one you have to sign before using JIRA.
If we ever offered a service, then access to that may require some click-through agreement where users who intend to contribute new data agree they do this on their own behalf. Otherwise, say someone does it from an employer's place or browser there could be a conflict, but that's the same for all contributions.
