[Fedora-legal-list] Google compute engine + trusted testers
Greetings legal@,
I've been working on the behalf of the cloud WG to get Fedora images built for
Google's new compute engine platform. As part of this work, Google has asked
interested people (Red Hat employees or not) to join their 'trusted tester'
program. Here's the program described by Google: 'As a Google Trusted Tester, you
can be part of an exclusive group that helps improve our products by providing candid
feedback and identifying problems before anyone else gets to use them.' This allows
people working on the images to get access to more advanced features of GCE to upload and
test them using features that might not yet be available. I have the full document if
anyone is interested in seeing it (I'm weary of publishing the whole thing to this
list), but the gist is that it's a confidentiality agreement and
indemnification/limitation of liability document.
So...is it permissible to ask Fedora contributors to sign this document? I'm happy to
provide any additional information or connect a representative of the legal team with
contacts at Google.
