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.
