These internal patches that you have, don't they have a SoB on from the
original author?

Ingo, Greg, how do we handle patches where the original Author has
vanished/left etc and no SoB is present?

Now, in this case we know Venki was with Google in the US, and the US
allows/has copyright assignment to employers and therefore any old SoB
from a Google person should probably be sufficient, but that argument
doesn't work in general (Germany for example doesn't allow copyright
assignment/transfer).
