I understand.  For better or for worse, it is the convention that
SeaBIOS has been following and I think it makes sense to state it
explicitly within the seabios git repo.

FWIW, I have found keeping names and contact info in the commits to be
helpful.  (Occasionally people have questions about using the code in
other projects and I've seen it be useful when reaching out to past
contributors.)  I don't feel the 7 sentences in the
developer-certificate-of-origin is a harsh burden.

Cheers,
-Kevin
