-Contributions to hostap.git
----------------------------
-
-This software is distributed under a permissive open source license to
-allow it to be used in any projects, whether open source or proprietary.
-Contributions to the project are welcome and it is important to maintain
-clear record of contributions and terms under which they are licensed.
-To help with this, following procedure is used to allow acceptance and
-recording of the terms.
-
-These terms are similar to the process used in Linux kernel development.
-The items (a) through (d) are identical to the Developer's Certificate
-of Origin 1.1. To enable cleaner licensing option to be provided in the
-future, an additional item (e) is included.
-
-Until February 11, 2012, in case of most files in hostap.git, "under the
-open source license indicated in the file" means that the contribution
-is licensed both under GPL v2 and modified BSD license (see below) and
-the choice between these licenses is given to anyone who redistributes
-or uses the software. As such, the contribution has to be licensed under
-both options to allow this choice.
-
-As of February 11, 2012, the project has chosen to use only the BSD
-license option for future distribution. As such, the GPL v2 license
-option is no longer used and the contributions are not required to be
-licensed until GPL v2. In case of most files in hostap.git, "under the
-open source license indicated in the file" means that the contribution
-is licensed under the modified BSD license (see below).
-
-
-The additional item (e) is used to collect explicit approval to license
-the contribution with only the modified BSD license (see below), i.e.,
-without the GPL v2 option. This was done to allow simpler licensing
-terms to be used in the future. It should be noted that the modified BSD
-license is compatible with GNU GPL and as such, this possible move to
-simpler licensing option does not prevent use of this software in
-GPL projects.

-
-(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

-(b) 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
-
-(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.
