Signed-off-by is like signing a legal document that you didn't put any
of SCO's secret UNIXWARE source code into your patch or do other illegal
activities.  Everyone who handles a patch is supposed to Sign it.

It's weird to see Sabrina randomly signing your patches.  Probably there
is a more appropriate kind of tag to use as well or instead such as
Co-Developed-by, Reviewed-by or Suggested-by.
