But it matters very much to some contributors. Especially young or newbie contributors who see this a recognition by the technical community. I have even seen people share there commits proudly in social media. For those of us who have been doing this for a long time, we don't need that recognition (I have around 36,000 commits to the project), but that is not true of others. So I think we need to be respectful of contributors. I believe that we owe contributors of patches to the OS the public recognition that they deserve. Greg
