I you pick up the patch(es) and need to change something, you don't have to bother with retaining my authorship (but please cc me). Just claim it for your own and make it work. Less work for me when I get there (eventually).

Why can't be quite this flippant with copyright for upstream :-)

Either please put something like "Based on work by ..." into the commit message (when it's a big rewrite) or just add your own s-o-b line and a small note what you changed (if it's just a tiny change).

Thanks, Daniel
