It can either be a separate grant or, if Alibaba is going to sign a CCA then the software grant can be covered by Annex B of the CCA. > Sign SGA for Dubbo > -- > > Key: DUBBO-2 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DUBBO-2 > Project: Apache Dubbo > Issue Type: Task >Reporter: Huxing Zhang >Assignee: Huxing Zhang >Priority: Major > > Confirm whether we need to sign SGA, and make sure it happens if so. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)

An existing third party project joining Apache And below is the process: Existing third party projects join through the Apache Incubator project. All copyright holders have to sign [Contributor License Agreements|http://apache.org/licenses/#clas] or [Software Grants|http://apache.org/licenses/#grants] , and project names are checked for trademark issues. CLAs tend to be for individuals who will continue to develop the software, while grants are for individuals or companies who will not be direct committers. You can learn more about that process at the [Incubator|http://incubator.apache.org/]. My understanding is if a company hold the project's copy right and does not want to continue to develop it, a software grant is required. Otherwise, if anyone in this company is a committer, there is no need to sign SGA. Is my understanding correct? > Sign SGA for Dubbo > -- > > Key: DUBBO-2 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DUBBO-2 > Project: Apache Dubbo > Issue Type: Task >Reporter: Huxing Zhang >Assignee: Huxing Zhang >Priority: Major > > Confirm whether we need to sign SGA, and make sure it happens if so. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
