We would like everyone to have a CLA signed. The OSGeo CLA gives the geotools project management committee a few more protections and abilities beyond the LGPL license. Most notably it allows us to donate the code to other open source projects (something we have done both for GeoToolKit and JTS Topology Suite in the past). When we joined OSGeo we spent some time contact all the historical geotools developers we could find and getting agreement from them.
Aside: If the "other contributors" were working for a company a you can get the company to sign for many people in one go. -- Jody Garnett On Sun, 12 Jan 2020 at 18:10, sjudeng <sjud...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > If there is interest I'd like to try again to get ElasticGeo contributed > to GeoTools/GeoServer as a community module.
