At KDE, we don't require signing CLA to contribute, this is a requirement in our manifesto[1]. But contributor can assign their right to the KDE e.V. if they want using a Fiduciary Licensing Agreement[2].

KDE itself no, but Qt requires one (second link above)?

Ironically, RedHat themselves sometimes make an exception, like the first link mentions:

> We reluctantly sign tolerable upstream project CLAs out of practical necessity.
