Do we need Andrew's S-o-B, or is this a fresh patch? I don't believe we need Andrew's S-o-B as the assertion of the Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 clauses (a), (b) and (d) is being made. Specifically, clause (c) does not apply. However this may be a gray area, so we could put on Andrew's S-o-B if that would make everybody happier.
