Hello everyone.
I would like to submit a small (doc) fix to go so i try to follow https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html
the change would be on behalf of my company and it looks like I cannot submit the company CLA since i don't have the legal authority so i asked one of the founders.
But he had trouble filling in the "authorized contributors group" entry.  we tried e...@companydomain.com  whichis where all our engineers are, but that's not a google group.
then he created a google group for us but he kept getting "You must be an owner of the contributors group in order to submit this CLA." (note: he *is*  the owner of the group, and he's logged in with his company email account). so that was a failure.. now he got this email from "Google CLA Admin via DocuSign"  with a document to review and sign, which he did, and this did not ask for a google group.  Now when I log in to gerrit (with my company account) I see no new agreements to choose from, it proposes I make a new one but that puts me back at square one (i'm not legally authorative). so when i try to use `git codereview mail` I still get `fatal: remote error: A Contributor Agreement must be completed before uploading.`
anyone any ideas? thanks,
Dieter
