[opensource-dev] Draft update to the Contribution Agreement

[Nicky Perian]

The original CLA may have same items and I just did not catch that casual verbal / oral conversations unless prefaced with "this is not a contribution"  would be considered a contribution. For me, that puts a chill on discussing with any LL employee the technical feasibility of an idea that may or may not become a contribution.

>As most of you probably know, Linden Lab acquired Desura™, a digital distribution service for PC gamers.
>
>The code for the Desura client is open source, managed as the Desurium project on github.  The Desurium project used a different open source licenses (GPLv3) than we use for the Second Life Viewer project, and had its own Contribution Agreement. 
>
>After some discussion with both Second Life and Desurium
    contributors, Linden Lab has produced a draft of a new Contributor License Agreement that we would like to use for both projects in the future.  This email is an invitation to contributors and potential contributors to discuss that draft here.
