Oh, another thing. In your v7 series, your author name (appears on the From: header of the email) is spelled in K-L order, but your Sign-off is the other way around, i.e. L-K. Names of some people are spelled in Family-Given order even in English context [*1*], and I do not have any objection if you are following that cultural practice for _your own_ name. I however want to see it done consistently between Author: and Signed-off-by: lines. [Footnote] *1* Prime minister Lee Myung-bak, chairman Mao Zedong are some examples. Somewhat strangely, not prime minister Yoshihiko Noda, even though some Japanese insist on spelling their names like "FAMILY Given", with family name in all caps. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
