* modules/openstack_project/files/gerrit/cla.html: As was pointed
out on the openstack-dev mailing list by Zane Bitter, the last
several sentences of the first paragraph of the preamble no longer
apply to the new signing process. This change removes them from the
text. For discussion, see...

<p><em>
|
|
In order to clarify the intellectual property license granted with
|
|
Contributions from any person or entity, the OpenStack Project (the "Project")
|
|
must have a Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") on file that has been
|
|
signed by each Contributor, indicating agreement to the license terms below.
|
|
This license is for your protection as a Contributor as well as the protection
|
|
of OpenStack Foundation as Project manager (the "Project Manager") and the
|
|
Project users; it does not change your rights to use your own Contributions for
|
|
any other purpose.
|
|
</em></p>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>
|
|
You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for Your present and
|
|
future Contributions submitted to the Project Manager. In return, the Project
|
|
Manager shall not use Your Contributions in a way that is contrary to the
|
|
public benefit or inconsistent with its nonprofit status and bylaws in effect
|
|
at the time of the Contribution. Except for the license granted herein to the
|
|
Project Manager and recipients of software distributed by the Project Manager,
|
|
You reserve all right, title, and interest in and to Your Contributions.

Definitions.
|
|
</strong>
|
|
"You" (or "Your") shall mean the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by
|
|
the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with the Project Manager. For
|
|
legal entities, the entity making a Contribution and all other entities that
|
|
control, are controlled by, or are under common control with that entity are
|
|
considered to be a single Contributor. For the purposes of this definition,
|
|
"control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the direction or
|
|
management of such entity, whether by contract or otherwise, or (ii) ownership
|
|
of fifty percent (50%) or more of the outstanding shares, or (iii) beneficial
|
|
ownership of such entity. "Contribution" shall mean any original work of
|
|
authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that
|
|
is intentionally submitted by You to the Project Manager for inclusion in, or
|
|
documentation of, any of the projects owned or managed by the Project Manager
|
|
(the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of
|
|
electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to the Project Manager or its
|
|
representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic
|
|
mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are
|
|
managed by, or on behalf of, the Project Manager for the purpose of discussing
|
|
and improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked
|
|
or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution."

Grant of Copyright License.
|
|
</strong>
|
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the
|
|
Project Manager and to recipients of software distributed by the Project
|
|
Manager a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
|
|
irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare derivative works of,
|
|
publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute Your
|
|
Contributions and such derivative works.

Grant of Patent License.

|
</strong>
|
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to the
|
|
Project Manager and to recipients of software distributed by the Project
|
|
Manager a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free,
|
|
irrevocable (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have
|
|
made, use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where
|
|
such license applies only to those patent claims licensable by You that are
|
|
necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your
|
|
Contribution(s) with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If
|
|
any entity institutes patent litigation against You or any other entity
|
|
(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that Your
|
|
Contribution, or the Work to which You have contributed, constitutes direct or
|
|
contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that
|
|
entity under this Agreement for that Contribution or Work shall terminate as of
|
|
the date such litigation is filed.
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above license. If your
|
|
employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that you create that includes
|
|
your Contributions, You represent that you have received permission to make
|
|
Contributions on behalf of that employer, that your employer has waived such
|
|
rights for your Contributions to the Project Manager, or that your employer has
|
|
executed a separate Corporate Contributor License Agreement with the Project
|
|
Manager.
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
You represent that each of Your Contributions is Your original creation (see
|
|
Section 7 for submissions on behalf of others). You represent that Your
|
|
Contribution submissions include complete details of any third-party license or
|
|
other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents and
|
|
trademarks) of which you are personally aware and which are associated with any
|
|
part of Your Contributions.
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
You are not expected to provide support for Your Contributions, except to the
|
|
extent You desire to provide support. You may provide support for free, for a
|
|
fee, or not at all. Unless required by applicable law or agreed to in writing,
|
|
You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR
|
|
CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without
|
|
limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT,
|
|
MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
Should You wish to submit work that is not Your original creation, You may
|
|
submit it to the Project Manager separately from any Contribution, identifying
|
|
the complete details of its source and of any license or other restriction
|
|
(including, but not limited to, related patents, trademarks, and license
|
|
agreements) of which you are personally aware, and conspicuously marking the
|
|
work as "Submitted on behalf of a third-party: [named here]".
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
You agree to notify the Project Manager of any facts or circumstances of which
|
|
you become aware that would make these representations inaccurate in any
|
|
respect.

|
</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
In addition, if you have provided a Contribution (as defined in the LLC
|
|
Contribution License Agreement below) to the Project under the Contribution
|
|
License Agreement to OpenStack, LLC ("LLC Contribution Agreement"), you agree
|
|
that OpenStack, LLC may assign the LLC Contribution Agreement along with all
|
|
its rights and obligations under the LLC Contribution License Agreement to the

Project Manager.
