This is the main reason I will never donate code to an organization that requires a CLA: it allows them to repurpose your contributions to promote and distribute proprietary software, which is, IMO, the ultimate in ingratitude.
Most orgs that require a CLA are just doing open source cosplay, they don't actually give a fuck about software freedoms.
Maybe someone should harvest all the contributor emails out of the OwnCloud git history and send them a note so that they know what happened as a result of signing their copyrights away.
