John Sisson - new Apache Geronimo committer
Dear John,
The Apache Geronimo PMC has voted to offer you commit status on the
Apache Geronimo project.
Thank you for your participation so far in the project, and we all are
excited to have you as a committer.
Please let us know if you wish to accept this offer.
If you accept, we need the following :
0) your preferred username (sissonj?, jsisson?) for
your apache account and email address
1) You need to sign an Individual Contributor License
Agreement, found here :
http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt
http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.pdf
(PDF looks nicer)
This document is required for commit access. Please
fax that to the FAX # found on the form. You have a
chance of things going faster if you ALSO fax to
+1-203-665-6400.
2) If possible, get your employer to sign a Corporate
Contributor License Agreement, found here :
http://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txt
This is optional, but encouraged. This document shows
that your employer knows and accepts that you are
contributing to the project. There are lots of good
reasons to get this done if you can.
Congratulations!

Depends on your situation.
Many employers in the US have as part of the employment agreement terms
that establish ownership of development work you do. The terms of this
vary by company.
So we offer the CCLA as a vehicle in which the committer can get
explicit permission from his/her employer, as a way of protecting that
committer from their employer taking issue with it later. It's never
good to just go on a "wink and a nod" from a manager, if that manager
many not be around later...

Well, over on legal-discuss@ this has recently been debated, and my impression
is;
* In Europe, whatever you do on your spare time is your business, as long
as you don't utilize company resources (space, computers, bandwidth...)
* In USA, your butt belongs to the company 24/7, and any output from you
and your brain can potentially be claimed by the employer (some even
suggesting the fish you caught on a vacation.)
* Rest of the World, murky at best.
ASF is just trying to make sure that an employer doesn't claim IP rights
later.
Cheers

Geir,
Sorry for the delay.
I am still waiting for our legal department to get back to me, I think
they are quite busy at the moment.
