Hi Jody,
That sounds sensible. The pull request is under the author's name, and also the
reporter in the JIRA ticket.
Thanks!

That is a shame. Lets do what we can, especially for tests cases :(
Note down the authors and organisations, and perhaps link to the pull request
or jira ticket. At the very least that pull request or jira ticket should be in
the authors/organization's name right?

Hi Jody,
The trouble is he wasn't working for CSIRO, but I helped review the patches. We
cc'ed the manager etc. from the organisation, but didn't get any response (re:
contribution agreement). If I modify them, would I be able to submit these
files, and put both our names down (with respective organisations)? Otherwise
I'll have create new tests, which is fine I guess, but it's a shame to waste
the effort :).
Cheers
Rini

If he was doing this work under contract (or as an employee) then he should be
covered by the organisation contribution agreement. Or you could have a manager
sign on his behalf.
It would be kind to mention him in javadocs with a @author Geoff Williams
(CSIRO)

Hi,
A while back ago Geoff Williams submitted a patch with unit tests.
Since the unit tests contained new files, we weren't able to submit them
without a contribution agreement signed (and he has since left the
organisation).
I am working on something related to his patch, and wonder if I could reuse and
modify the unit tests and then submit the tests with both our names?
The unit test is attached here: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-4515.
Thanks
Rini
