That's a pretty tough thing to do. Most (all?) Apache projects require a CLA, as does Go, Java, Mysql, Cassandra... It's pretty standard for any project that is both managed by a corporation and accepts third-party contributions.

EDIT: removed Postgres. Thanks, 'anarazel!

~~You got me on Postgres. Don't use the others.~~

Edit: another post states that Postgres doesn't require a CLA for contributors. So I don't use any software requiring a CLA.

Postgres doesn't have a CLA.

All of those projects also have alternatives that don't require a CLA. The solution is to avoid projects by bureaucratic corporations.
