This page is the step-by-step guide to signing the FusionPBX Contributor License Agreement. It's easy and pretty painless! For an explanation about why we ask you to do this, see the CLA Rationale page.
-
First and foremost, read the current version of the CLA. It is written to be as close to plain English as possible.
-
Make an account on GitHub if you don't already have one.
-
File a pull request on this project (FusionPBX Open Source), as outlined below.
-
Email the FusionPBX, as outlined below. Wait for a FusionPBX team member to merge your pull request. You may start opening pull requests for the project you're contributing to but we will only be able to merge your contributions after your signed CLA is merged.
If you wish to, you may also file the CLA in paper form. Please see the instructions on the paper CLA page for details.
For more information read GitHub's document about it.
If you don't yet know how to file a pull request, here is the simplest way
- In your browser, go to FusionPBX Open Source Repo
- In the top right hand corner click the "Fork" button.
- If you have multiple accounts or are on a team it will ask you which account to fork to choose the one with your github username. If you only have one account it will just fork it for you and take you there. You will be redirected to your private copy of the opensource repository.
- In the file browser up top click on the contributors folder to go into it
- Look on top of the file browser and click the 'Create new file' button
- Name the file in the top dialogue box yourgithubusername.md DONT HIT ENTER. Example: my github is richbreton my file is called richbreton.md
