For upstream stuff I usually put patch submittors in the git authorship info and possibly in the AUTHORS/THANKS files if the patch is large enough. PS: since you are doing upstream stuff, you might want to read our upstream guide: http://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
