The original intent with patches was to understand who wrote them. That
is extremely useful information in X years time and was missing in many
cases. The sign-off doesn't mean much in this context. The above does
identify who wrote it (and when) so I'm not convinced there is a problem
there. Admittedly I have not put my full name or email address so its
not as clear as it could be but I've been doing this for a while now and
I'm the only one signing patches with those initials...

Cheers,

Richard
