>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Task

> Discussion here: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/b611fb3b913ff115b07169f26e4ee8e86094ac444d38683e8769f901@%3Cdev.cordova.apache.org%3E
> Consensus achieved. Proceeding with PR.
> Repro'ed here:
> {code}
> It's up to us to decide, and right now we require the iCLA except for trivial contributions.
> I want to change this to a more relaxed requirement:
> 1. Non-committers do not require an iCLA (you need one anyway to get an account, so that's really a non-issue)
> 2. Require a clear intent by the author to contribute under our normal terms, for a non-trivial change
> So some of you will be wondering, what does Apache say about this?
> From: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-infrastructure-dev/201112.mbox/%3CA603FFCE-623B-43E9-87F8-39BAA51C72D1@gbiv.com%3E
> Roy Fielding:
> "Yes, that opinion comes from me speaking as a board member and
> author of the Apache License, and has previously been cleared
> with Apache's legal team for a long ago discussion with Incubator.
> We don't need a CLA on file to accept contributions from non-committers.
> We just need a clear intent by the author to contribute under
> our normal terms."
> Other opinions: http://apetro.ghost.io/apache-contributors-no-cla/
> We need to change our Contribute page:
> http://cordova.apache.org/contribute/
> ... as well as any PR templates:
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-media/blob/master/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md
> This declaration of intent, if posted on Github, will be reflected on dev@cordova.apache.org since Apache sends out an email on each PR or comment to a PR, so we will be able to track it in our archives.
> As usual it is always the committer's responsibility to make sure that all code they push to a repository is compliant with ASF policies.
> {code}
> Issues need to be created to update all the PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md files in all the repos.
