Hello, everyone.
The most recent update to the copyright policy (GLEP 76 [1]) have been
approved today, with approval from Council (7 votes in favor)
and Trustees (4 votes in favor, 1 absent). As a result, the commit
signoffs allow using names other than the "legal name" now,
and therefore pseudonymous contributions are permitted.
This follows a similar change to the kernel contribution policy that
the Gentoo policy was based on.
The exact wording is "using a known identity as a natural person" [i.e.
not a company].
