Their first paragraph is:
"The Django software foundation is asking all past and future contributors to sign a contributor license agreement. Every contributor of non-trivial amounts of code (more than just a line or two) to Django should sign such a document. If somebody is unable to sign the document, their contribution (whether it be code, or documentation or string translations) may need to be removed from Django. "
If they were operating under a model of open contribution ... and then pull the carpet out from under them (as they are asking for retroactive compliance). They should be prepared to have the contributions pulled out from under them with legal action.
Besides why does the creep Chaim Kirby (President of the Django foundation) want to know where you live, keep it accessible within their org just to "receive your contribution".
