Thanks for your patch, it's on it's way to application :)
generally the maintainer who is picking up the patch and sending on to wolfgang would add a s-o-b rather than a-b tag ...
I've always seen s-o-b as 'I contributed to this patch' and a-b as 'I think this patch looks good (and I may have even compiled it)' and t-b as 'I actually ran this on real hardware'
the Linux kernel wisdom is "s-o-b means 'i handled this patch in transit to merge'" while "a-b means 'looks good to me'"
So how do you differentiate between someone who actually wrote the code (and should be praised and mocked accordingly ;)) and someone who just shufled it from A to B?
Regards,
Graeme
