Please consider integration with https://cla-assistant.io/
Currently we have a rather odd workflow for new contributors that require them to do the following:
- They create (or already own) a GH account and try to contribute
- The CLA check fails and a contributor ask them to sign the CLA
- They create (or already own) a Eclipse account
- One has to add the GH name to the Eclipse Acount to connect both and wait some hours
Not that it is cumbersome to sign up for twice services, it is rather manual and error prone (wrong mail address, missing name in profile, not patient enough ...), and I recently came across a very nice integration with the https://cla-assistant.io/ when contribution to an Apache OSS project that worked the following:
- I created a PR
- An automatic message is added and I can click on the button to sign the CLA
It would be great to have such one-click workflow for the Eclipse CLA as well!
FYI @akurtakov @mistria @emerks @aloskutov ... maybe more ... spread the word ...
