noob question: what does this signoff means?
Basically it means that it works OK for you and you are willing to
"sign off the declaration the package is OK and can be moved to
[core]." Usually it's not used for packages from [extra] or
[community].
Generally packages only need signoffs from developers on arch-dev mailing
list. Sometimes (like with kernel26) public signoffs are wanted.

Thanks! :D
I wasn't actually aware that public signoffs are wanted for kernel26. As
far as I can remember some packages specifically request user signoffs
due to lack of usage among devs (and those eventually get dropped from
core in my observation). Any simple list as to which packages users
should help signoff?
Users should signoff only when requested on this mailing list.
