I am pretty sure that I added a 'Signed-off-by:' field to my patch but

Was this removal done on purpose?


I had to port the patch manually so I guess it got lost then. Do we want to
have Sign-off-by from author as well?
By the time the patches land in oe-core there'll have been a lot of
rebasing and merging as I don't intend to see a series that contains
fixes in oe-core.  We should ensure that everyone who contributed to
meta-oe gets a credit in the series.

No question about that, the question was whether to add Sign-off-by from the author itself. I know that we are doing it like that right now, but I don't understand it's reasoning. Being the author of a patch what would be the point in adding a Sign-off-by with the same name? I can agree either way, no question about that, just want it to get it clear why we do it like we do it.
