The Contributor License Agreement

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation defines the legal status of the contributed code in a Contributor License Agreement (CLA).

Only original source code from CLA signatories can be accepted into kubernetes.

This policy does not apply to third_party and vendor.

How do I sign?

1. Read

• CLA for individuals to sign up as an individual or as an employee of a signed organization.
• CLA for corporations to sign as a corporation representative and manage signups from your organization.

2. Sign in with GitHub.

Click

• Individual signup to sign up as an individual or as an employee of a signed organization.
• Corp signup to sign as a corporation representative and manage signups from your organization.

Either signup form looks like this:

3. Enter the correct E-mail address to validate!

The address entered in the form must meet two constraints:

• It must match your git email (the output of git config user.email) or your PRs will not be approved!

• It must be your official person@organization.com address if you signed up as an employee of said organization.

4. Look for an email indicating successful signup.
