Requiring everybody to sign an ICLA is a bit much, and I would seriously
discourage it. The ICLA required a two week review from the GC at my
office before I could sign it (with you work for an entity like a
university, IBM, Lucent, etc, where they own everything you do, there is a

I don't think this is stupid. I say go with the copy you have and
we can use twittering as our crowd sourcing. If we want to be
doubly-careful we can respond to submissions and ask if the designer
will be cool with signing and ICLA if they win before their
submission is made public for

So you're going to make every entrant submit the agreement before
hand? It sounds like a high barrier of entry.
The contract and/or terms that the winner must sign should be made
known up front. I thought they were part of the original contest proposal.

I have another thought about this. Why can't they use a public medium, and
if it's the one accepted, that one person signs an ICLA? Surely we're not
going to hamper entries by requiring all entrants to sign an ICLA up front?
Or, would it be acceptable to put it in the entry contest rules that th
