- jerf 11y agoThe CLA is not a term of the license; it's a term of Google's stewardship of the code. If you fork Go and keep the BSD license, you can do as you like. Many projects of many varying license types use CLAs. The Linux kernel deliberately uses the fact it doesn't have one to ensure that nobody could ever un-GPL2 it because there's no possibility that you could ever reach every contributor for a license change.
