The Apache Contributor License Agreement does not assign copyright.

Now, I understand the Canonical and the OO.o agreements are not the same (I think they do assign the copyright), but I want to understand better whether this is "all CLAs are bad", or "these specific CLAs are bad", and in both cases, why.
