We welcome contributions of all kinds to Yeager Framework, whether it's a bug fix, a new feature, or just an improvement to the documentation. By contributing to this project, you'll be joining a community of developers who are passionate about AI and Open Source.
- Fork the repository.
- Create a new branch for your changes with a descriptive name, such as feature/new-feature or bugfix/fix-bug.
- Make your changes and commit them to your branch.
- Push your changes to your forked repository.
- Submit a pull request from your branch to the 'master' branch of the main repository.
By creating a separate branch for your changes, you can keep your work isolated from the main codebase and avoid conflicts with other contributors' changes. Additionally, it allows for easier review of your changes by the maintainers of the Yeager Framework project.
Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Yeager Framework project (the "Project"). This Contributor License Agreement ("Agreement") is for your protection as a contributor as well as the protection of YeagerAI Inc. and its users; it does not change your rights to use your own contributions for any other purpose.
To clarify the intellectual property license granted with contributions from any person or entity, YeagerAI Inc. must have on file a signed Contributor License Agreement ("CLA") from each contributor, indicating agreement with the license terms below. You accept and agree to the following terms and conditions for your past, present, and future contributions submitted to YeagerAI Inc. You should sign this agreement before submitting your first contribution and send a copy to contributors@yeager.ai.
(a) "YeagerAI Inc." refers to the company operating the Yeager Framework project, a Delaware corporation.
(b) "You" (or "Your") means the copyright owner or legal entity authorized by the copyright owner that is making this Agreement with YeagerAI Inc.
(c) "Contribution" shall mean any original work of authorship, including any modifications or additions to an existing work, that is intentionally submitted by You to YeagerAI Inc. for inclusion in, or documentation of, the Yeager Framework project (the "Work"). For the purposes of this definition, "submitted" means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent to YeagerAI Inc. or its representatives, including but not limited to communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems, and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, YeagerAI Inc. for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise designated in writing by You as "Not a Contribution".
By submitting Contributions to the Project, You hereby grant to YeagerAI Inc. and to recipients of software distributed by YeagerAI Inc. a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to use, copy, reproduce, prepare derivative works of, distribute, sublicense, and publicly perform and display the Contribution and such derivative works on any licensing terms, including without limitation open source licenses and binary, proprietary, or commercial licenses.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You hereby grant to YeagerAI Inc. and to recipients of software distributed by YeagerAI Inc. a perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide, no-charge, royalty-free patent license to make, have made, use, sell, offer to sell, import, and otherwise transfer your Contribution in whole or in part, alone or in combination with or included in any product, work, or materials arising out of the Project to which your contribution was submitted, and to sublicense these same rights to third parties through multiple levels of sublicensees or other licensing arrangements.
Except as set out above, You keep all right, title, and interest in your contribution. The rights that you grant to YeagerAI Inc. under these terms are effective on the date you first submitted a contribution to YeagerAI Inc., even if your submission took place before the date you sign these terms.
You represent and warrant that:
-
Each of Your Contributions is Your original work and that you are legally entitled to grant the above license.
-
Each of Your Contributions does not to the best of your knowledge violate any third party’s copyrights, trademarks, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
-
Your Contribution submissions include complete details of any third-party license or other restriction (including, but not limited to, related patents and trademarks) of which you are personally aware and which are associated with any part of Your Contributions.
-
If You are an individual and 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 YeagerAI Inc., or that your employer has executed a separate Corporate CLA with YeagerAI Inc.
-
You provide Your Contributions on an "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
-
You agree to notify YeagerAI Inc. of any facts or circumstances of which you become aware that would make these representations inaccurate in any respect.
For clarity, this license grant applies only to the patent claims owned by You that are necessarily infringed by Your Contribution(s) alone or by combination of Your Contribution(s) with the Project to which such Contribution(s) was submitted by You. If any entity institutes patent litigation - including cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit - against You alleging that your Contribution(s) or the Project to which you have contributed constitutes direct or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses granted to that entity under this Agreement shall terminate as of the date such litigation is filed.
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between You and YeagerAI Inc. regarding your Contribution and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, proposals, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, regarding your Contribution.
This Agreement will terminate automatically if You fail to comply with any of its terms and conditions. YeagerAI Inc. may also terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason by notifying You in writing.
By submitting Contributions to the Yeager Framework Project, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you are agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you may not submit any Contributions to the Yeager Framework Project.
YeagerAI Inc. may modify this Agreement from time to time. When such modifications are made, YeagerAI Inc. will notify you by email to the address you provided when submitting your Contribution. Your continued submission of Contributions to the Yeager Framework Project following such notification constitutes Your acceptance of the modifications.
This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to conflict of laws principles.
