+Thank you for your contribution to the Remotely project.  It is required that contributors assign copyright to me (Jared Goodwin) so that I retain full ownership of the project.
+
+This makes it easier for other entities to use the software because they only have to deal with one copyright holder.  It also gives me assurance that I'll be able to make decisions in the future without gathering and consulting all contributors.
+
+While this may seem odd, many open source maintainers practice this.  Here are a couple well-known examples:
