Are you sure you mean Clause 7?  I'm looking at it, and that's just a

"two clauses" refers to 2 and 3 - sorry for making you waste your time
trying figure out what I meant.  The reason to move clause 7 to the
start is that then people can simply chop off everything after the
statement saying that the code is licensed under the GPL, without
removing that clause, since everything else is about contribution
policy, and the other license.
