Information for Contributors

We encourage contributions to BlazeDS. Contributions given via the BlazeDS bug system will require the acceptance of a Contributor Agreement that grants rights to Adobe on behalf of the BlazeDS project. This agreement ensures that:

1. you have the rights to contribute the code
2. copyright is granted to Adobe for inclusion in open source and commercial distribution of LiveCycle Data Services
3. any patent issues are resolved.

Occasionally contributors will be nominated to full committer status which means full rights to commit into the source control system. An additional agreement will be required that simply includes a little more information and assurances that you're not evil.
