MySQL Eventum Software Contributor Agreement (to include in your email
to eventum-contributions@mysql.com):

This MySQL Eventum Software Contributor Agreement is between you and
MySQL AB ("MySQL").  In this Agreement, "You" shall mean the owner of
the Contribution, as defined below, including any individual or any
corporation or entity which has authorized the person accepting this
Agreement to act on its behalf.  The purpose of this Agreement is to set
forth the terms and conditions under which MySQL may use software that
you wish to contribute to MySQL for the purpose of use within one or
more MySQL software development projects, including but not limited to
MySQL's Eventum project.

By accepting this Agreement, You hereby agree to the following terms and
conditions:

1.  As used in this Agreement, the term "Contribution" shall mean any
software, including source code and/or object code, documentation, or
modifications to the foregoing, which You concurrently or subsequently
make available or submit to MySQL in any form.  Contributions shall not
include any software or documentation which has been explicitly marked
to indicate that it is not a contribution to MySQL.

2.  You hereby grant to MySQL, its successors, and assigns, the
non-exclusive, transferable, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free right
to use, modify, copy, sell, transmit, and distribute in any form the
Contributions under the terms of any version of the GNU General Public
License, or any version of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
Without limitation, this grant is made with respect to any copyright,
patent, or other intellectual property or moral rights You may have in
or to the Contributions.  MySQL shall have no duty whatsoever to render
an accounting to You for any use of a Contribution.

3.  You represent that You are legally able and entitled under the laws
of your jurisdiction to enter into this Agreement and to grant MySQL the
rights described in this Agreement.

4.  You represent that You are the original author, creator, or inventor
of the Contributions.  If Your employer(s) have rights to intellectual
property that You create, You represent that have received permission to
provide each Contribution on behalf of that employer, or that Your
employer has waived such rights for the Contributions.

5.  You warrant that, to the best of your knowledge, the Contributions
do not violate the legal or intellectual property rights of any other
party.  Except as described in this Agreement, the Contributions are
licensed on an "AS IS" basis and You do not make any warranty or
representation of any kind with regard to the Contributions.

6.  You agree to notify MySQL if any circumstance should arise which
would make any of the foregoing representations inaccurate in any respect.

7.  Except as granted to MySQL in this Agreement, You retain all right,
title, and interest in and to the Contributions.

8.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Delaware and
applicable U.S. Federal law, without application of choice of law rules.
