The main reason for that agreement is to allow us to make license changes to the source code if needed without having to track down every past developer to get their permission. Since controller presets are sort of "at arm's length" (not compiled in, just distributed with the application,) they can have their own licenses. So we really just need permission to distribute them with the application, since if we ever change the application's license, it wouldn't necessarily apply to the controller presets themselves. That said, it wouldn't hurt to have preset writers sign the agreement because it would avoid any future confusion. It's just not required. IANAL so correct me if any of this is wrong.
