The signed-off-by tag typically signifies that you agree to have your contribution be part of the project and subject to whatever licensing policies the project may have AND (really important!) that you have the right to make such an agreement. It was started by the linux kernel people, and they have a very specific meaning attached to it. See http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/SubmittingPatches?id=HEAD part 11. Other projects could choose a different meaning. I expect most projects treat it as "kind of like the linux kernel thing" in a somewhat hand-wavy manner. eirik _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
