Thank you for the contribution!

@iamjpotts can you sign the CLA please? We won't be able to accept the contribution until you do.

[iamjpotts]

@dustin-decker thanks for your interest in my contribution.

The CLA is in review and I should have feedback in 1-2 weeks on it.

@dustin-decker

I'm trying to figure out the mechanics/process for a corporate entity to sign the CLA. For individuals, it's obvious - click the grey/yellow button above and follow thru with the electronic acceptance.

What's the mechanics/process for a corporate entity?

[dustin-decker]

@iamjpotts it should be the same process, that CLA covers individuals on behalf of a company too. See point 4)

You represent that you are legally entitled to grant the above license. If your employer(s) has rights to intellectual property that you create that includes your Contributions, you represent that you have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that employer, that your employer has waived such rights for your Contributions to the Company, or that your employer has executed a separate Corporate CLA with the Company.

@dustin-decker

Thanks for the response.

By same process - do you mean that only my account iamjpotts needs to sign the CLA in the scenario where the PR has IP from my employer (which is the case with this PR)? No other signatures required, such as by an executive officer of the company?

[dustin-decker]

That's correct @iamjpotts, as long as you have received permission to make contributions on behalf of your employer and they have waived their rights to your contributions, the standard CLA signed by your GitHub user covers it. This is the relevant attestation from point 4:

you represent that you have received permission to make Contributions on behalf of that employer, that your employer has waived such rights for your Contributions to the Company

[iamjpotts]

I have received written permission to make this contribution on behalf of my employer, El Toro.com, LLC.
