What are the arguments for it? The kernel's submitting patches documentation says that - Signed-off-by: this is a developer's certification that he or she has the right to submit the patch for inclusion into the kernel. It is an agreement to the Developer's Certificate of Origin, the full text of which can be found in Documentation/SubmittingPatches. Code without a proper signoff cannot be merged into the mainline. and The Signed-off-by: tag indicates that the signer was involved in the development of the patch, or that he/she was in the patch's delivery path. I think we're just getting into Parkinson's law of triviality... _______________________________________________ Piglit mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/piglit
