Contributor License Agreements

DuraSpace desires that all contributors of ideas, code, or documentation to DuraSpace projects submit a completed and signed individual Contributor License Agreement (CLA). This agreement clearly defines the terms under which intellectual property has been contributed to DuraSpace. This agreement will help us defend the project if there is a legal dispute regarding the software in the future. A signed CLA is required to be on file before an individual may commit to a DuraSpace project.

In the case of an organization, such as a corporation or academic institution, that has assigned employees to work on a DuraSpace project, a Corporate Contributor License Agreement (CCLA) is available. This agreement may be used to contribute intellectual property that may be assigned as part of an employment agreement. However, a CCLA does not remove the need for every developer to sign their own CLA as an individual, to cover any of their contributions that are not owned by the organization signing the CCLA.
