i think the way daniel had it before was likely correct.

i wrote the original code, but it looked pretty different back then. 
daniel has brought it to its current state.  i _then_ added my
Signed-off-by.

so the code is both "Based on code by Paul Fox", and my Signed-off-by
should come after daniel's (assuming chronological order).
