## Contributor License Agreement

This project welcomes contributions and suggestions.  Most contributions require you to agree to a
Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us
the rights to use your contribution.

When you submit a pull request, a CLA bot will automatically determine whether you need to provide

provided by the bot. You will only need to do this once across all repos using our CLA.
