As discussed on the mailing list [1], remove the limited explicit list of
contributors in favor of the general mention of 'The Buildroot developers'.
Add a copyright statement.
Move the generation info to the front.

This trailing '+' seems wrong. I've removed it.

I've changed this to 'Refer to the COPYING file'.

Committed with these minor changes, thanks.

This was intentional to add a line break. It shows in the pdf, but not in the .text nor .html. This is due to the direct call to a2x. I'm planning to investigate this further.

Anyway, the line break isn't really necessary so its removal is no problem.
