RE: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] make network-bridge work in more environments

["Ian Pratt" <m+Ian.Pratt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Mr Virtual,

I suspect that Dave Virtual may not be your real name.

I can take legal advice on whether I can accept a patch from a source
that I suspect may be operating under a pseudonym, but I thought I might
contact you to see whether you would be prepared to reveal your true
identity in a signed-off-by: line?
 
The OSDL DCO does create extra some extra 'paperwork', but it's surely
important that we cover our collective arses. As a supporter of the Xen
project I'm sure you appreciate that.

Thanks,
Ian

PS: If your name really is Mr Virtual, I apologise profusely. With a
name like that you should definitely be working for XenSource Inc. We're
always hiring, so please send us your CV! :-)
