This is exactly what the CTs say. You sign there that you own your edit and grant the OSMF to sub-license it if needed and under well-defined terms.
IMHO it's a shame we only introduced such terms so late. When I started contributing, my understanding was that I was *giving my contributions to the project* which includes that the project can use it under share-alike-style terms and license them for use of anyone, but I always wondered why there was no agreement I needed to OK that said that in detail. (Of course, the OSMF is the legal representative of the project, as "the project" has no legal standing by itself at all.)
