We can exercise some discretion as to minor patches, but for larger contributions, especially for anything that could stand alone, nowadays, ASF PMCs can and do ask for CLAs. It's just a matter of degree. I very much doubt that anyone on legal-discuss@ is going to say that it's wrong to require a CLA for everything that goes into the codebase. -Ted. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
