Hello.
Forwarded from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1413646#c2
The upstream of librealsense, Intel demands that when we want to contribute to librealsense via github pull request (for example):
https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
such contributer are required to accept Intel CLA (Individual Contributor **License** Agreement):
https://github.com/IntelRealSense/librealsense/blob/master/CLA.md
I suspect that this CLA may be additional requirement (or license) when developing librealsense. So:
1. Should this CLA be regarded as something like additional "license" or so? 2. In such case (or if not, in any case), can this CLA be accepted for packages on Fedora?
Note that the license of librealsense itself is under "ASL 2.0 and BSD".
Thanks in advance.
Regards, Mamoru

Typically CLAs do not have any effect on downstream work, only when changes to librealsense are being submitted upstream. Tom can confirm this, but it looks like there's nothing in the CLA or CONTRIBUTING files that indicate it would have any effect downstream (i.e. in Fedora or Fedora's users).

Just want to confirm that you are still investigating this issue? Thank you in advance.

Can we get a confirmation for this in the ticket: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1413646 ?
It would be nice to proceed with the review.
Thanks! Till
