Contributor Agreement
Today I met with Andrew Rens to continue discussions regarding the OSE Contributor Agreement on the Wiki.
Conclusions are
March - contributoragreements.org/chooser - generate an agreement in March to get ourselves a proper contributor agreement, which is getting updated for patents. -for wiki - add a Terms and Conditions for general website on wiki and blog, gotten from Andrew's site -Jack at USC for Open Hardware License -On wiki, we generate a form that checks off - I agree to terms and conditions, and I read and agree to contributor agreement. Then an email is sent to the person signing up - with conditions and etc clear. - Then OSE saves a copy PDF of the agreement on its server. (Add a capture of email for monthly newsletter?) which fields are critical - name - and email? Date is automatic?
