I fail to see what more needs to be clarified on top of what we already have; please re-read "(5) Sign your work" section, paying with special attention to: - "YOU WROTE IT or otherwise have the right to pass it on". - "the contribution was created in whole or in part BY ME and I HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUBMIT".
