It's on the website now, at gcc.gnu.org/dco.html , and I've added the section to MAINTAINERS. It's not clear to me that it needs to be in the source tree as well, since it's project contribution policy rather than license. Jason ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

It's not clear to me that it needs to be in the source tree as well, since it's project contribution policy rather than license. I'm wondering about change control of this document. The GPL has a version number and references to use the version number. The DCO seems to have a version number, but the DCO section in the MAINTAINERS file does not give it. I would think that a certification should call out which DCO it uses, whether in a one-off (in a patch) or in the MAINTAINERS DCO list. paul ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

The GPL has a version number and references to use the version number. The DCO seems to have a version number, but the DCO section in the MAINTAINERS file does not give it. I would think that a certification should call out which DCO it uses, whether in a one-off (in a patch) or in the MAINTAINERS DCO list. I've added the version to the MAINTAINERS list, thanks. It is not customary to mention the version in a Signed-off-by tag. Jason ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
