Update CLA

[dannys42]

IBM originally required a CLA (Contributors License Agreement) for all PR's. I don't think the original text makes sense anymore for a community project. However as business do rely on Kitura, it's probably good to have something here to ensure everyone is clear on their rights with regards to community contributions.

Personally, I'd rather see something simpler with less legal jargon, something along the lines of:

You agree that...

• You are the author of the contribution
• You have the legal right to contribute the code
• You have the legal rights to grant the copyright license.
• The contribution is not subject to third-party license, claims, suits, or actions.
• You have no expectation of payment or anything in return for the contribution

But this is a legal agreement, so perhaps something more legal sounding would be better? Contributoragreements.org seems to have a nice FLA generated agreement.

Plenty of large open source projects have some sort of CLA (Apache, Ubuntu, etc.)

Please weigh in your thoughts, contributors and Kitura users (corporate and individuals).

For the time being, I have kept the IBM CLA but modified to refer to the "Kitura" project instead of "IBM". Kitura CLA v0.2 I figure this will be the "path of least change" just to keep the project moving while we transition.
