+       ======================================
+
+       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 licences
+            indicated in the file; or
+
+        (b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
+            of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
+            licence and I have the right under that licence to submit that
+            work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
+            by me, under the same open source licence (unless I am
+            permitted to submit under a different licence), 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.
+
+       and also that:
+
+        (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 licence(s) involved.
