As we know these developers are claiming to be from a company that we can not confirm they are actually working for, no, we can't take their contributions as that goes against the DCO (anonymous contributions). > 2) Send an @zte.com.cn to lkml to confirm their @gmail/@zte.com.cn mapping. That would be great, but so far no one that I have contacted from ZTE has been able to confirm that these are actually ZTE developers. > 3) Fix the email systems.
