Cool. Always nice to see communities in sync.

Perfect. Thanks. It's always very useful to be able to borrow best

Hi Eduardo,
there is a list of committers (they have all submitted the ICLA) and
the page also contains the contributors (non-committers),
that signed the individual CLA:
http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html
(search for "Persons with signed CLAs but are not committers")
HTH,
Matthias

Hi Eduardo,
Well, I remember you from Sun. ;-)
:-)
I think the situation isn't well-understood. Once you sign the
ICLA, your
contributions are covered. If you don't want future contributions
to be
covered by the agreement, don't contribute any more.
If you have a test case for a bug you submit, and don't want the
test case
to become part of your contribution, there's a tick box on the
bug report
that says "this is not a contribution".
Didn't know about that tick box; seems a good idea.
What is the situation that you need covered?
I can think of two cases. One is an unintentional contribution.
This
seems covered by the ASF ICLA clause about "intentionally
submitted",
which is not present in Sun's SCA. The other is more of a
"statement"
where the individual might want to indicate that it no longer is
supportive of the institution, but there are other ways to do that.
BTW, is there a public list of everybody that has signed an ICLA/
CCLA?
Something like Sun's [4].
[4] http://sca.java.net/CA_signatories.htm
For completeness, the current version of Oracle's CA is OCA 1.6 [5].
I believe it is the same as SCA 1.5, with s/Sun/Oracle/, but not
100%
sure. It has several clauses not in the ICLA, including one
specific
to commercial entities indicates "Any contribution we make available
under any license will also be made available under a suitable FSF
(Free Software Foundation) or OSI (Open Source Initiative) approved
license." - that, of course, would not apply to ASF.
