adopt the DCO and clean up license, etc. information
NOTE: for the moment this project is GPLv3 ONLY (no "or later" was ever present). I will hopefully reach out to the couple other authors later to see about adding the "or later" part Signed-off-by: Brian S. Stephan <bss@incorporeal.org>

## Sign Offs/Custody of Contributions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I do not request the copyright of contributions be assigned to me or to the project, and I require no provision that I
|
||||||
|
be allowed to relicense your contributions. My personal oath is to maintain inbound=outbound in my open source projects,
|
||||||
|
and the expectation is authors are responsible for their contributions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I am following the the [Developer Certificate of Origin (DCO)](https://developercertificate.org/), also available at
|
||||||
|
`DCO.txt`. The DCO is a way for contributors to certify that they wrote or otherwise have the right to license their
|
||||||
|
code contributions to the project. Contributors must sign-off that they adhere to these requirements by adding a
|
||||||
|
`Signed-off-by` line to their commit message, and/or, for frequent contributors, by signing off on their entry in
|
||||||
|
`MAINTAINERS.md`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This process is followed by a number of open source projects, most notably the Linux kernel. Here's the gist of it:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
[Your normal Git commit message here.]
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`git help commit` has more info on adding this:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
-s, --signoff
|
||||||
|
Add Signed-off-by line by the committer at the end of the commit log
|
||||||
|
message. The meaning of a signoff depends on the project, but it typically
|
||||||
|
certifies that committer has the rights to submit this work under the same
|
||||||
|
license and agrees to a Developer Certificate of Origin (see
|
||||||
|
http://developercertificate.org/ for more information).
|
||||||

(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I

have the right to submit it under the open source license

|
license and I have the right under that license to submit that
|

by me, under the same open source license (unless I am

|
in the file; or
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
|
||||||
|
person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
|
||||||
|
it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(d) 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.
