+Teaclave follows the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) model, which does not 
+require `Signed-off-by` or other commit trailers. While such tags 
+(e.g., DCO-style trailers like `Signed-off-by`, `Reviewed-by`) are welcome, 
+they are optional and not enforced. Pull requests with or without them are 
+equally welcome.
+
+However, DCO-style tags cannot substitute for the Contributor License 
+Agreement (CLA). Major contributions and all committers must have a signed 
+CLA on file, as [required by the 
ASF](https://www.apache.org/licenses/contributor-agreements.html#clas).
