I think it's kind of meaningless without an explanation of what it
means. The Linux kernel has a "Developer Certificate of Origin" in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches that explains what it means in that
context.

I'm not sure what lead the Linux community to create that and require
S-o-b and the certificate of origin. That seems like an important
question to answer before we start requiring S-o-b.
