Contributor License Agreement

Contributor License Agreement

One CLA applies to all three repositories: SPEC, RI, TCK

Note that for your convenience we provide one CLA document below which applies to all three separate repositories.

• SPEC
• RI
• TCK

Why is there a CLA?

In order for us to accept pull requests, the contributor must first complete a Contributor License Agreement (CLA). This clarifies the intellectual property license granted with any contribution. It is for your protection as a Contributor as well as the protection of IBM and its customers; it does not change your rights to use your own Contributions for any other purpose.

You can download the CLAs here:

• individual
• corporate

If you are an IBMer, please contact us directly as the contribution process is slightly different.
