Is there an objection to the CLA other than the process delay and aggravation factor?
I believe there is something more in OpenStack's case that we hear from some of the developers. The way OpenStack handles inbound contributions (including but not limited to the CLAs themselves) seems unusually complicated and confusing, and atypically rigorous, compared to other projects I am familiar with, including ones that are large-scale and commercially significant. Lots of the contributors to OpenStack have experience working on other such projects so they naturally are going to see OpenStack as an aberration and wonder why that is so. - Richard
