A properly formed S-o-b line has the email address too... but in any case I don't think it should be necessary in this case. First of all the patch is a pretty trivial one-liner... but in any case as I understand things I should be able to submit patches from our company's internal tree and both preserve authorship (ie "From: Steve") but also be the first person sending it out.
Looking at "Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1" in SubmittingPatches, I guess I am certifying (b), ie
(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source license and I have the right under that license to submit that work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part by me, under the same open source license (unless I am permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated in the file; or
(Since I actually did write the changelog for the patch)
- R.
