Contributor License Agreement

Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Airlock Protocol.

By submitting a pull request or patch, you agree to the following terms:

Individual CLA

  1. Grant of Rights. You grant the Airlock Protocol maintainers a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, modify, sublicense, and distribute your contributions under any license chosen by the project.

  2. Original Work. You represent that your contribution is your original work, or you have sufficient rights to submit it under this agreement.

  3. No Warranty. Your contributions are provided as-is, without warranty of any kind.

  4. Right to Relicense. You understand that this CLA allows the project maintainers to change the license of the project in the future, and you consent to such changes applying to your contributions.

Why a CLA?

Open-source projects that may need to change licenses (e.g., from Apache 2.0 to BSL, or vice versa) require explicit permission from every contributor. Without a CLA, relicensing requires tracking down and getting consent from every individual contributor — which becomes impossible at scale.

Projects like Apache, Google, Microsoft, and HashiCorp all use CLAs for this reason.

How to Sign

When you open a pull request, the CLA Assistant bot will ask you to sign electronically. You only need to sign once.

If you have questions, open an issue or contact the maintainers.
