4*05767d91SRobert WuBefore we can use your code, you must sign the

6*05767d91SRobert WuAgreement](https://developers.google.com/open-source/cla/individual?csw=1)
7*05767d91SRobert Wu(CLA), which you can do online. The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the
8*05767d91SRobert Wucopyright to your changes, even after your contribution becomes part of our
9*05767d91SRobert Wucodebase, so we need your permission to use and distribute your code. We also
10*05767d91SRobert Wuneed to be sure of various other things—for instance that you'll tell us if you
11*05767d91SRobert Wuknow that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
12*05767d91SRobert Wuthe CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
13*05767d91SRobert Wuapproved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
14*05767d91SRobert WuBefore you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch with
15*05767d91SRobert Wuus first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out and
16*05767d91SRobert Wupossibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid
