+
+The agreements ensure that the code will continue to be made available under free
+software licenses, which gives developers the freedom to move code between GNUnet
+and GNU Taler without worrying about licenses and the company the ability to
+dual-license (for example, so that we can distribute via app-stores that are hostile
+to free software).

+Minor contributions do not require copyright assignment (basically, anyone without Git access).
+Pseudonymous contributions are accepted, in this case simply sign the agreement
+with your pseudonym. Scanned copies are sufficient, but snail mail is preferred.
