Contributors are: University of Colorado: - Philip Ogren - Steven Bethard - Chris Roeder (minor) - Philipp Wetzler (minor) Technische UniversitŠät Darmstadt: - Richard Eckart de Castilho - Niklas Jakob (minor) - Shuo Yang (minor) - Torsten Zesch (minor) External/Private: - Fabio Mancinelli (minor) - Steven Bethard I assume(d) that the SGA by University of Colorado and Technische UniversitäŠt Darmstadt will cover the corresponding people, as they were under contract by the respective institutions at the relevant time. If this is correct, then an additional ICLA would be required for Steven for his private contributions and for Fabio. Or do we need ICLAs for all minor contributors and SGAs for all major contributors and their respective institutions? And is it ok if there are multiple SGA documents on the same file/hash, each by one party, or does it have to be one single SGA document with signatures from all parties (which may be logistically quite inconvenient).
