The CLA itself is fairly straightforward on its requirements.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Legal/Licenses clarifies the rationale.
Moving forward, Red Hat is aiming to transfer all of the related
copyrights, patents etc to the Fedora Foundation. Again, if anyone has
concerns as a potential contributor, these should be raised in the
appropriate mailing lists. For packagers, fedora-extras list would be
appropriate.
