Folks,

for those of you with CVS access, when checking in patches from other people you *must* make sure you add a:

Courtesy of foo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

line to the commit message. (Colon after the "of" is optional) This is how we track who's sent what in, and records the info we need to get in touch with them later if we need to.

This is important--non-trivial commits of code or documentation without this will have to get yanked out. (There are arguments that we ought to get signed paper from people before committing non-trivial patches from them, but those seem a bit much. Proper attribution, however, is the minimum requirement)
