Yes, that's the rationale. We can simply forget about the whole copyright policy effort, if we don't require committers to certify their contributions under their real name. > I don't like this.

According to recruitment policy [1] (which is in place since 2004 [2] at least), there cannot be any anonymous developers doing copyrightable work: # Real names must be provided for all developers, including # infrastructure and documentation. Any exceptions to this for # extenuating circumstances will be considered on a case-by-case # basis. No exceptions will be made for people doing copyrightable # work (ebuilds, software, scripts, documentation, etc.). AFAICS, the GLEP will only confirm the existing policy there.
