Dear all, I recently came across the nice-looking (seems some Bootstrap template;-) project site of Apache ACE. Its team page http://ace.apache.org/get-involved/project-team.html points to a general list of Apache Roles: http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#roles
Is it right to assume, members of the "Developer" group do not need to sign the CLA, but may contribute what that page calls "Documentation"? If contributing Device Signatures for the DeviceMap project were consdered more "documentation" than actual "code", would this be a proper role for such contributions? Not having to sign more than e.g. an online agreement of some form when they register (similar to JIRA, we'd have to look into that) as DeviceMap "developers" to contribute device signatures would lower the barrier for people compared to a more tedious paperwork of becoming a full committer.
