Does this imply that projects hosted at pagure.io require all
contributors to have agreed to the FPCA?
Broader question which I only bring up since I have the opportunity
do we really need the FPCA anymore for anything?
That currently seems to be the practice as we have had several
complaints from people wanting to just open a ticket and having to
agree to the FPCA, put in their phone number and location before doing
so. Whether they should or not is something I don't know about.
