Hi all, I got a PR from a contributor who prefers to remain anonymous. The person created new files and instead of putting a real name, the person added just initials. I am talking to the person to see whether they can be convinced to give a real name. Any advice on how to handle this? My feeling is that a copyright notice without a real name is illegal. I could publish the code in my name, but then a documented transfer of copyright from the contributor to me is missing, which then puts me in a vulnerable position. Any thoughts? Best regards, Hans
