Remember the terms of the Sun Contributor Agreement granted Sun co-ownership

Oh right. The SCA. Damn, forgot about that!
Would I be wrong to assume that this was in place for OpenSolaris code
(and indeed Oracle closed up their Solaris), while the new illumos
contributors did not sign an SCA with Sun and thus are not subject to
its terms? Did the (ex-)Sun/Oracle employees, including those currently
active in illumos community, sign it? Even if yes, does it hold valid
for post-split codebase?
Thanks for clarifications,
