CLA notice in README is dishonest or misleading

[purpleidea]

In the CLA it says:

conveys certain license rights to Microsoft Corporation

(and has a whole copyright grant paragraph)

But the README only says:

declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us the rights to use your contribution

This is completely misleading, and in my opinion dishonest. A submission of code under MIT or GPL license without a CLA would grant you the rights to use the contribution. The CLA grants essentially all rights for Microsoft to do whatever they want.

Anytime you have a CLA you can guarantee the project has their own interests first. Let's just hope those interests are benevolent :/

Thanks for bringing this up @purpleidea. I had a look around other Azure projects about how they mention the CLA in their README, and it appears the more popular projects don't mention the CLA process in the README at all. I proposed a PR to remove the misleading information in #57. I'd appreciate it if you had a look at that. Thanks!

I replied in the PR. HTH
