Replace CLA by DCO mechanism for new contributors
From now on, new contributors do not have to sign the Contributor License Agreement (CLA) anymore. This has been replaced by the Developer's Certificate of Origin (DCO), which implies that contributed commits need to be signed, either automatically by git or by suffixing a 'Signed-off-by: Your Name your.email@example.com' line in the commit message(s) when doing a pull-request.

Any code contributions going into GNSS-SDR will become part of a GPL-licensed,
|
||||
open source repository. It is therefore imperative that code submissions belong
|
||||
to the authors, and that submitters have the authority to merge that code into
|
||||
the public GNSS-SDR codebase.
|
||||
|
||||
For that purpose, we use the
|
||||
[Developer's Certificate of Origin](https://github.com/gnss-sdr/gnss-sdr/blob/next/.github/DCO.txt).
|
||||
It is the same document used by other projects. Signing the DCO states that
|
||||
there are no legal reasons to not merge your code.
|
||||
|
||||
To sign the DCO, suffix your git commits with a `Signed-off-by:` line. When
|
||||
using the command line, you can use `git commit -s` to automatically add this
|
||||
line. If there were multiple authors of the code, or other types of
|
||||
stakeholders, make sure that all are listed, each with a separate
|
||||
`Signed-off-by:` line.

||||
|

Before submitting your pull request, please make sure the following is done:
|
||||
|
||||
1. You undertake the
|
||||
[Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct](https://github.com/gnss-sdr/gnss-sdr/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).

2. If you are a first-time contributor, after your pull request you will be

asked to sign an Individual Contributor License Agreement

([CLA](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contributor_License_Agreement)) before
|
||||
your code gets accepted into `master`. This license is for your protection
|
||||
as a Contributor as well as for the protection of
|
||||
[CTTC](http://www.cttc.es/); it does not change your rights to use your own
|
||||
contributions for any other purpose. Except for the license granted therein
|
||||
to CTTC and recipients of software distributed by CTTC, you reserve all
|
||||
right, title, and interest in and to your contributions. The information you
|
||||
provide in that CLA will be maintained in accordance with
|
||||
[CTTC's privacy policy](http://www.cttc.es/privacy/).
|

2. You have read the

[Developer's Certificate of Origin](https://github.com/gnss-sdr/gnss-sdr/blob/next/.github/DCO.txt)

and

- The Contributor License Agreement (CLA) signing for new contributors has been

asking them to sign the CLA document).
