Might be useful to have all contributors sign a Contributors License Agreement (CLA) to make sure ...

  • ... the contributor (e.g., the author of a pull request) really is the author of the contribution
  • ... the contributor grants the FlatPress projects all rights to use, alter, publish his work
  • ... the contributor isn't held responsible for his contribution or for providing support for it

See Google CLA as example:

https://cla.developers.google.com/about
https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-individual

I'm not sure whether we need to go through this extra bureaucratic effort. You can count the number of active contributors on two hands. Such bureaucratic hurdles could put off new potential contributors. In addition, everyone must be aware that if they make their intellectual property available to a project under GPLv2, their intellectual property will be treated in accordance with GPLv2.
@DeltaLima, how do you see it?
