Hello everyone, While we continue to discuss an AI policy for NuttX, one thing I think we can agree on is to adopt the Apache Software Foundation guideline for generative tooling that recommends the following:
"When providing contributions authored using generative AI tooling, a recommended practice is for contributors to indicate the tooling used to create the contribution. This should be included as a token in the source control commit message, for example including the phrase “Generated-by: ”. This allows for future release tooling to be considered that pulls this content into a machine parsable Tooling-Provenance file" [1] I am proposing a vote on requiring the "Generated-by: " tag for contributions using AI tooling in accordance with the ASF guidelines. If this vote passes, the following text would be added to the contribution guide (section 1.5): "Contributions authored with the use of generative AI-tooling must include a 'Generated-by:' tag in the commit message to identify the generative tooling that was used in the contribution's creation. This tag should be placed above the 'Signed-off by:' tag in the commit message." And the 'Generated-by: ' tag will be added as a required field in section 1.6 of the Contribution guide. Best, Matteo [1]: https://www.apache.org/legal/generative-tooling.html
