Care to enlighten me what your definition of "appropriate signature" is 
exactly? I am expecting that your answer would include the appropriate 
guidelines used on this mailing list and *not* your personal opinion as, 
in this particular case, this is, or should be, irrelevant.

Similar to above - care to point out (in terms of links to previous ML 
archives posts and so on) what "problems" did I, allegedly, have had in 
the past with patch submissions? Because, to my recollection, I did 
*not* have any such problems. If you can't point me to any such 
references, then I'd assume that you are simply on a smear trip with an 
agenda.

I don't "play" with my signature - I have been using it since I started 
contributing to open source projects and that signature never changed.

I would also like to know what do you find that it is "not very good" in 
my signature and what particular patch submission guidelines am I 
breaking with using it? Again, I am expecting that you will refer to the 
relevant guidelines for patch submissions approved on this list when 
forming your response and will extricate any personal bias or opinion.

Just to repeat again, so that it is clear - as far as my "signature" 
goes, I am not aware of any issues I have allegedly had in the past with 
patch submissions, so if you care to point out what these were, please 
do so. If not, kindly move on. Thank you.
