CLA doesn't matter too much. If you want to contribute to an open-source project, you can just work on your own repo and can work together with other people just like it was a real open-source project. The good part is, you can pull any improvements from the original repo that they publish under A/GPL, but they can't pull from you if they want to re-license their code later. So the community fork will always be ahead in features and bug fixes compared to the CLA-crippled repo.
