Hi Greg,
I discussed how and when to do this properly with my corporate lawyers and
confirmed this submission is consistent with their guidelines.
You do raise an interesting point, though. If you think this approach is
improper, we should probably discuss it, including whether this
restriction is already a condition for contributions or whether it should
be. It wouldn't be the first difference of opinion on the finer points of
copyright law.
Best Regards,
Matthew Gerlach
