what's that

Let's hold off on that for now and find out a bit more

My thoughts exactly.

Hey everyone! Sorry - I didn’t even realise we had a channel! 😉

And yeah sorry about that ping from CLA Assistant. I’m evaluating it for use with some of my projects (including some hosted as part of clj-commons) and the first thing it did was ask me to login with GitHub. I saw a “request access for these orgs” type list, but glossed over it (I’m in quite a few orgs, apart from clj-commons). Only after logging in did I see it had sent some kind of access request to the org admins.

(and was slightly mortified as a result…)

But it does raise an interesting question in my mind for you: what is clj-commons’ policy on CLAs (if any)?

(oh and CLA = “Contributor License Agreement”, just in case anyone isn’t familiar with that acronym)
