As part of OpenTimelineIO’s transition into the Academy Software Foundation, the project is switching from a modified Apache License to the standard Apache License, Version 2.0. In addition the project is switching to use the ASWF 2020 v2.1 Contributor License Agreement (CLA). This change will align OpenTimelineIO to other ASWF open source projects, and aims to make legal approvals for users and contributors easier and quicker by using a well-known standard license.
Active and future contributors will need to sign the new CLA via the Linux Foundation’s EasyCLA system. Prior contributions do not need any additional approval or action.
Both individual contributors and corporate contributors will need to sign the new CLA via EasyCLA, which automates the signing process and bookkeeping.
Here is the new license and CLA we are switching to:
For reference, here is the old license and CLA we are switching away from:
These changes have been approved by Disney/Pixar Legal and ASWF Legal.
