OpenNLP IP clearance question
Hi all,
the OpenNLP project would like to accept a contribution of a syntactic
generalization component.
The contributor told me that he worked on it also during his day job and
cannot reach
his VP to sign a software grant and CCLA from him. Therefore he decided
to proceed as an individual
and he did send an ICLA and SGA to the secretary.
Can we now proceed, accept his contribution and go through the IP clearance?
Thank for help,
Jörn

You probably don't need BOTH an SGA or a CCLA. Just one. A CCLA allows
future contributions. The SGA would just cover this one thing.

Thanks for you answer, then we need to insist that his VP signs the
software grant
and CCLA. Is there anything else we need to get signed?
The ICLA is already on file.

He worked on it "during his day job" and nobody legally representing the
company(?) did "sign a software grant" or indicate agreement with the
contribution otherwise, correct? Can there be any other answer to your
question than no?
Cheers,
