Contributor License Agreement (CLA)

The Nova CLA is a modified version of the Apache Software Foundation - Contributor License Agreement.
This particular agreement has been used by other software projects and is generally accepted as reasonable within the Open Source community.

Where do I sign? What's next?

Read the following carefully, to determine which CLA applies to you.

Individual Contributor License Agreement - ICLA

If you're working on the project as an individual, you should request the ICLA.

• Send an e-mail to [email protected] with the subject "ICLA Request".
• Follow the instructions in the subsequent response to conclude this Agreement through a digital signature solution.

Corporate Contributor License Agreement - CCLA

If you're working on the project as part of your job, you and your employer will need to request and sign the CCLA.

You should also still sign an individual CLA in that case.
Not all the work you do will necessarily belong to your employer and we still need permission to license your individual contributions.
So it is recommended to use your personal e-mail address in the contact details, rather than your professional one.

This version of the Agreement allows a legal entity (the "Corporation") to submit Contributions, to authorize Contributions submitted by its designated employees, and to grant copyright and patent licenses thereto.

• Send an e-mail to [email protected] with the subject "CCLA Request".
• Follow the instructions in the subsequent response to conclude this Agreement through a digital signature solution.
