We've had this for a while now: https://github.com/open-telemetry/community/blob/main/polici...

A very nice example, and more kind and welcoming than most. When would you say it reached it's near final form? Git blame suggest about 7 months ago or 3rd Q 2025?

The wording might be more or less lawyerly but the idea is fairly common, e.g. https://openinfra.org/legal/ai-policy (OpenStack).

This is very good! It captures the core idea that "As a contributor, you are responsible for the code you submit" that the other example doesn't cover. Perhaps a nit is that it's a little too OpenInfra policy specific. Is it fair to say it got to it's near final form mid 2025?

Yes, that's fair.
