Could you elaborate what's wrong with the CLA?
It's the Apache one which is a reputable open source organisation, I'd imagine it wouldn't be that bad.
- ensignavenger 3y agoThey claim it will be the Apache one in their blog post, but I doubt it, the Apache CLA grants the ASF a license, not Element or the Matrix Foundation. From what they have said, it sounds like it will be a grant to Element. The ASF CLA says: "In return, the Foundation 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." Based on what has been said by Element, they have no intention of making this part of their CLA.
