Typically, CLAs are processed on Mondays, but at times may take up to two weeks from the time they are received. Sending via email ensures it's there immediately, and, if you're really chomping at the bit to get started, you can ping someone like myself on IRC to verify receipt and set up your accounts -- something I can't do when you FAX or send via post. > 2.

I believe it's a legal requirement; I think just filling out the form may not be legally binding. I'll check on this, however. > 3.

When you submit your CLA, in the email you attach the CLA to, simply note your JIRA username; otherwise, if you send via post or FAX, indicate it in your cover letter. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Project Lead | [email protected] Zend Framework | http://framework.zend.com/
