Frequently asked questions
- What is a CLA?
- The CLA confirms that you are entitled to contribute, that Encore has permission to use your contribution in our products (commercial and non-commercial), and that you cannot withdraw your consent to use your contribution at a later date.
- Why do you require a CLA?
- The CLA ensures that all contributions to our open source projects are licensed under the project's respective open source license. Requiring a CLA is quite common and a well-accepted practice in open source.
- How do I sign?
- Simply open a Pull Request ("PR") to any of our open-source projects. A bot will comment on the PR with a link to sign the CLA, if necessary. You'll get to log in with GitHub and then submit a few additional details to sign; it takes less than a minute. You only need to sign the CLA once for all Encore projects.
