Why have an external link which may go out of date
when we already have the cert?
It's really short, we could just quote it.
I wouldn't bother repeating it, but I'll happily remove the URL
and just refer to Documentation/SubmittingPatches. I think that
the latter is a good place for it to stay.
Maybe it should be a separate file
Documentation/Developer_Certificate_of_Origin
and referenced directly.
Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
(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

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
(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.
