Hi and welcome to the ASF. Documentation is also Copyrightable material, so before we can grant direct edit access to wiki, we have decided that we need a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) sent to the Secretary of ASF, preferably by fax, but I have heard that we now also support certain mail submissions. The CLA basically says that "I am the author or by some other means are the Copyright holder of the material I send to ASF, and that I give ASF a license to redistribute that". See the Agreement text for details and check with your legal dept if any doubts.
If CLA is not on file, you can still contribute, but need to do so via the issue tracker, where you are given a choice to give ASF the license or not. If "not" then the project will not pick up the attachments. The Confluence wiki has an Edit Text, which is easy to for us to handle. If it is an existing page (esp large ones), then a diff file should also be attached.

We at CISCO planning to use ETCH in our team. i would like to contribute to Apache ETCH initially through the documentation examples on wiki and gradually like to submit my patches and bug fixes. I was trying to add an example for java binding in the apache wiki but i was not allowed to edit it as its restricted. I need to know like what is the process to submit the documentation , permission to edit the cwiki in apache. Thank you Ranganath On Thu, Nov 5, 2009 at 2:12 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi!
