LGTM, so...
Reviewed-by: Fabio M. De Francesco <fmdefrancesco@xxxxxxxxx>
Thanks,
Fabio
P.S.: The answer to an old question from you is that "LGTM" stands for "[It]
Looks Good To Me".
It's just a way to introduce the "Reviewed-by" tag itself. However, "LGTM" is
not required, whereas the tag is required for a valid review and only the tag
line will be added by maintainers in the log when your patch gets applied.
While here... Please don't put unnecessary blank lines between the tags.They
are not required and instead may worsen readability (obviously, I'm not
requiring a new version for this).
