Jay, I agree with you. This goes back to the spam fiasco that occurred on confluence and the pendulum swinging because of it. Re-reading that email there doesn't seem anything specific requiring us to have them sign the ICLA but it looks like that is a requirement if we wanted INFRA to assign the person in the asf-cla group... so we could just have our own contributor group and manage that in confluence however we wanted?
