# Governance

  • The CaSS Project is an open source community governed by Eduworks Corporation (opens new window) ("Eduworks").
  • The CaSS website, documentation, and GitHub project are managed by Eduworks.
  • The CaSS Project accepts contributions in the form of pull requests, communications, suggestions, documents, and issues via GitHub.
  • All contributors must sign a CaSS Project CLA prior to making any contribution outside of GitHub. The CaSS Project CLAs are similar to the Individual and Corporate Apache Contributor License Agreements. Please email us for a CLA.
