Signed-off-by is generally used by those involved in the development  
of the patch, or those through whom the patch has gone in its path  
upstream, i.e. when it goes through a gatekeeper, afaik.  I doubt  
Acked-by is limited to the core devs.. but I'm talking from a general  
sign off usage perspective here, not the OE specific usage of it.
