Yeah, I know that's necessary for the patch to be accepted, but in
this case, I don't think your original version of this (it wasn't
actually a patch) had a S-o-b on it, so I didn't want to say that you
had signed off on something that you didn't.

I have run into this situation before and handled it this way -
letting the co-developer sign off on the list. Is this something I
should avoid in the future?

In any case, I will resubmit this now that I have your S-o-b.

Thanks!
