Well, then I have to repeat myself: Signed-off source code (in form of
patches) in a well-known programming language for a (nowadays)
well-known GPLv2 licensed project mailed on "everyone can subscribe"
mailinglists, (thus) to be found in several $SEARCH_ENGINE-indexed
mailinglist archives, if accepted to be found in lots of publicly
accessible git repos can be not intended to be published?

I wonder what else must happen.
