Hi Stef--

     This is currently left to Ralph's discretion, subject to the
approval of the board. I personally favor allowing only contributions
from those who have signed the agreement; I assume the release process
will make that easy in the near future.

     As I mentioned in the agenda for the 2007-02-07 meeting, I will
make the first report on contributor response to the agreement
(including a list of positive responders). Between now and then, I plan
to get that information from Viewpoints.

     I assume the release team will make the agreement available to
anyone who wants it, then people can sign and return it.

     That's unlikely, because the signed agreements include
contributors' physical mailing addresses and signatures. We could black
those out, but then I don't see much difference between those scans and
a simple list of names.


     thanks again,
