To improve tracking of contributions to this project we will use a process
modeled on the modified DCO 1.1 and use a "sign-off" procedure on patches that
are being emailed around or contributed in any other way.
The sign-off is a simple line at the end of the explanation for the patch,
which certifies that you wrote it or otherwise have the right to pass it on as
an open-source patch. The rules are pretty simple: if you can certify the
below:
By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I have the right
to submit it under the open source license indicated in the file; or
The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of my
knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source License and I have
the right under that license to submit that work with modifications, whether
created in whole or in part by me, under the same open source license
(unless I am permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated in
the file; or
The contribution was provided directly to me by some other person who
certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified it.
The contribution is made free of any other party's intellectual property
claims or rights.
I understand and agree that this project and the contribution are public and
that a record of the contribution (including all personal information I submit
with it, including my sign-off) is maintained indefinitely and may be
redistributed consistent with this project or the open source license(s)
involved.
then you just add a line saying
