  <title>DITA-OT Contribution Questionnaire Form 1.2</title>
  <titlealts>
    <navtitle>Contribution Questionnaire Form</navtitle>
  </titlealts>
  <body>
    <p>The Contribution Questionnaire is the first step in initiating the due 
      diligence and approval process by the Project Manager (PM) for any 
      significant contribution of content to be committed to the project. Prior 
      to completing this Questionnaire, the Committer should have technical 
      agreement from the PM that the new code is required. Once the PM has 
      approved, the Committer, with the assistance of one or more of the 
      contributors, may begin the due diligence and approval process by 
      completing and submitting this questionnaire. </p>
    <p>
      <b>What is meant by a significant contribution?</b>
    </p>
    <p>Any initial code contribution used to kick off a new project. By 
      definition, this code has been written elsewhere and it needs to be 
      reviewed. </p>
    <p>or </p>
    <p>Any contribution authored by someone other than a committer which is 
      adding new functionality to the codebase. In most cases, bug fixes do not 
      add new functionality although it&apos;s not impossible. </p>
    <p>or </p>
    <p>Any contribution containing third-party code maintained by another open 
      source project, individual, group, or organization. In addition to 
      reviewing the contribution, if the license is not the Common Public 
      License (CPL) or Apache License 2.0, the PM will need to review and approve the third-party 
      license for compatibility with the CPL or Apache License 2.0. </p>
    <p>
      <b>How to send PM this form?</b>

      minor enhancements. If you have any questions, please send an email to 
      the PM. </p>
