To add to that, you can add a prominent disclaimer on top "In case of a 
contradiction between the Official English version of the contributory 
license agreement and the community German translation, the English 
version must be considered authoritative. This translation is only 
available to help German users understand the CLA and must not be 
considered as a legal document". In German of course.
