Given our previous experience I'm worried that you might change your
mind again.
I'd like you to pledge that it's your final decision and you will
not attempt to delete it again after some time.
what previous experience? this is the second time we're discussing this
issue. this issue was never sorted in the very first place. i could also
claim that it doesn't look like you're up to solving the issue.
one year is not exactly "after some time".

I'm not entirely sure, but we might want to ask the SuSE folks whether
they agree.
i guess you can do that. my mentor was jim, he's around libvirt a lot.

As we've pointed out when you wanted to delete your name in the first
place, most of the people looking at the code will be able to figure out
the commit that added your name here and that commit does show your
e-mail address.
i'd say this is okay but i don't see the problem with me sharing the
copyright.
