I think that's a bit far gone. I definitely want the credits for the stuff I am creating.

Hmm, you are PMC member that is the credit, or?
well, I was rather refering to me independent of Lenya or Cocoon, but for instance if I contribute to Nutch and am not a Committer there

But that doesn't mean of course one has to write your name into evey commit message. Your name will be logged anyway. But if I commit stuff from other people (through Bugzilla) then I always write
who created this stuff also to express that I wasn't the one.

Yeah, especially when closing bugs the commit message should contain
such credits (due to, patch submitted by, ...). Regarding the credits
for a committer that is like you observed in the svn history and can be
seen on our changes page. See my other mail why it is not a good idea to
quote how is the author

right

(further I heavily doubt that any code is coming
one single person).

maybe in the first place, but over the long time
