To clarify; I wasn't referring to Github accounts, but to the Git commits
themselves:

commit 1e5a48f5217edf874d5771b29ceb7680a930d4b3

If this project ever has to endure a SCO-like attack, IMO it'll be very
hard to defend with pseudonymous *commits*.

There was a discussion about this on LKML some time ago; IIRC the
resolution was "no pseudonymous commits", and it *may* have later been
revised as "unless you can convince a gatekeeper that you have a very good
reason for not using your real name".
