From 80301ce8c73134ce84b72dc840dcbf479e84d5c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ned Batchelder Date: Thu, 25 Feb 2021 12:24:26 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] docs: update CLA links to point to Docusign form. The openedx.org/cla link is a redirection to Docusign. If the form has to change in the future, we can update the redirect at openedx.org. There are other changes to make to CONTRIBUTING.rst, but those will have to wait. --- CONTRIBUTING.rst | 29 ++++++++++++++++------------- README.rst | 2 +- 2 files changed, 17 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/CONTRIBUTING.rst b/CONTRIBUTING.rst index ae08aba526..b7ea037eb1 100644 --- a/CONTRIBUTING.rst +++ b/CONTRIBUTING.rst @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ -############################ +######################## Contributing to Open edX -############################ +######################## Contributions to Open edX are very welcome, and strongly encouraged!
