Further research and discussion with the Foundation counsel brings a simple resolution to this. We need a single CLA signed for code, documentation, Wiki pages, etc. Let's do it.
Of the 345 folks in EditGroup, a subset have not signed the CLA, and of that, a subset have actually contributed to the Wiki. Those people we need to identify and explain the situation.
AP Websites team -- we need:
* A one-stop page for the CLA-to-be to work from - can someone with a few minute throw up a straw man plan? * If feasible, divide the group of CLA-needy amongst Docs and Websites volunteers to provide personal assistance, explanations, hand-holding, etc. * ???
AP Patrick -- let's pull the ripcord on this. How should we announce? We need to hit fedora-devel-list, since I reckon a small group is there. What else? Just create a mass Bcc: list from the account records? Should filter out the have-CLA-already first.
Thanks - Karsten
If there's a way to do some hacking around in the wiki, we may be able to make it so that the 'EditGroup' page is automatically generated from the Fedora Account System. I think the main missing piece is a way to translate between usernames/e-mails and WikiNames. Any ideas on that?
Best, -- Elliot
