Who doesn't need to sign the CLA

If you provide us with small patches or bugfixes via our bugsystem, in most
cases we do not need you to sign a CLA. Generally, authors cannot claim
copyright for small fixes.

Also, if you have written a contribution and want to make it available in the
contribution area of the eZ website, you do not need to sign the CLA. You are
free to just upload your contribution to the site.

includes (but is not limited to):
