+    ChibiOS/RT - Copyright (C) 2006,2007,2008,2009,2010 Giovanni Di Sirio.
+@endverbatim
+ *
+ * <h2>Contributions and Copyright Assignment</h2>
+ * Contributing to the ChibiOS/RT project requires assigning the copyright
+ * on the contributed code to myself (Giovanni Di Sirio).<br>
+ * There are several reasons for this requirement:
+ * - ChibiOS/RT will probably become also a commercial product and I could not
+ *   re-license the code without ownership. Note that the commercial product
+ *   would not be a different or better product, just the same GPL product
+ *   made available, on request, under a different license. The code will
+ *   always be available to you under the current licensing terms.
+ * - I need ownership when changing the licensing terms and this happens
+ *   each time the project goes from development/unstable to stable and
+ *   back because the addition/removal of the GPL linking exception.
+ * - It will be easier for the project adopters to have a single ownership
+ *   point in case of licensing issues (both GPL or commercial).
+ * - Losing the ownership on the code could preclude me the opportunity to
+ *   make this project a full time job as I hope.
+ * - I definitely don't want to have to sort out copyright related issues
+ *   in the future so better be clear than sorry.
+ * .
+ * Note that contributions will always be welcome even without such copyright
+ * assignment, the difference is that the contributed code would not be
+ * merged into the main line, it will still made available as contributed
+ * code with the contributor(s) copyright notice intact.<br>
+ * Submissions of code with copyright notice should only happen through
+ * email, please do not commit code with copyright notices directly on
+ * the repository.<br>
+ * When submitting code please <b>state clearly your intention to keep the
+ * copyright</b> on your work by adding your own copyright notice within the
+ * source code and by clearly mentioning your intentions in the message. Code
+ * contributed without copyright notice will be considered donated.<br>
+ * If in doubt with licensing issues please don't hesitate to contact me
+ * in order to sort out any problem you may have.<br>
+ * Of course the copyright assignment does not mean you would not be
+ * recognized for your hard work, see the following section.
+ *
+ * <h2>Credits</h2>
  * I want to thank to all the people that directly or indirectly contributed
  * to the project, I beg pardon if someone is missing:
  * - <b>Adamo Reggiani</b>, working on the Fujitsu port.
