It depends. Here's how I do when I have that situation:

  - if there is a substantial amount of the original code kept over, I
    keep the original author as author. Then I had my SoB line.

  - if the code from the original submitter is no longer used, because
    everything was rewritten, then I make myself the author. Then I add
    my SoB line, and change the original author's SoB into a Cc.

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
