Highpoint is a legal entity so highpoint can enter into agreements. Thats
a bit different from say "Dave the anonymous ferret" or "three people
down the pub"
In many ways companies that sign the patches themselves are being nicer
to their employees than those who encourage the current practise.
(NOTE!! speaking for myself, not for other Red Hatters)
The solution I've settled upon is jgarzik@xxxxxxxxxx for sign-offs, and
my usual addresses (jeff@garzik, jgarzik@pobox) for all email
communication and patch posting.
That makes it clear who is really signing off on the patches, while
still ensuring that if I get fired or leave Red Hat, the flow of
communication can be largely uninterrupted.
For those who don't know, to prevent sensitive information leaks, it is
standard corporate policy for many companies these days to immediately
yank an email address the minute an employee's status changes.
