Ping? Let me know if I have the wrong list, I thought comdev maintained this.
I've been in contact with two podlings, one publicly and one privately, who both ran into an issue on this question (for the record, they both marked yes, both use pull requests to accept contributions, and I pointed out to them that commit messages from external contributors don't include the information listed, they agreed when reading the question). It seems to me that using a pull request is valid, and it keeps enough provenance of the code (git has a notion of an author and committer, so maybe we can just mention that?). It's just that the wording doesn't really line up with how git works. John On Sun, Aug 27, 2017 at 9:24 PM John D.
