Real quick, click on the download mbox and you should see Grame's 
signed-off-by and Richard's Acked-by added to the patch. When you apply 
this to git, it will retain those lines.

I made mine not quit fit the format since I hadn't reviewed the patch.

The other reason is to use standard notation so people do not have to 
collect ack statements in various forms, from various sources. We should 
use the standard forms, not something we invent internally.
