Marcus asked me to do this. And that doesn't mean that it will be easy to hunt down copyright holders to code etc. And such changes don't help when you want to update the file from some upstream source (in this case, Linux), since it will just "disapper". If you want to keep a list of people that have worked on the patch, keep it in the ChangeLog. I might add that the following is also a common practise among alot of projects when one wants to note several people that have worked on a patch: ,---- | 2004-02-18 Person1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Person2 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | | * foo.c (fun): Bar Baz. `---- Cherrio. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
