As discussed elsewhere, I don't see a particular need for this, in the sense that it's already covered by section 5 of the Apache License (below). I don't see any way someone can submit a PR without already being covered by that?! However, from an information perspective, it might be nice to be more upfront on certain things for drive-by contributors? We could do a PR template along the lines of https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/3431 >From ASL """ 5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise, any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of this License, without any additional terms or conditions. Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
