Hi, So I was always under the impression that an ICLA is only required if someone wants to take the next step and be more active and eventually look to become a commiter on a project?
I know before NetBeans went to Apache I had submitted a few pull requests to the Apache JClouds project but was never asked or blocked by needing to submit a ICLA.
