<h2 id="guidelines">General guidelines for submitting patches <span class="r"><a href="#guidelines">#guidelines</a></span></h2>
<p>
Most people put their name on their work, for recognition, and it's OK if you want to do that; however, the libreboot project does not require this. Some projects
- (such as coreboot) require a legal name, which can be a problem for certain groups of people.

<p>
Using your legal name is <b>not</b> required when submitting patches to libreboot. For reasons why we have this policy, read <a href='http://geekfeminism.org/2012/09/29/quick-hit-how-git-shows-the-patriarchal-nature-of-the-software-industry/'>this article</a>. You can use an assumed name, or your company name (if you have a company), if you want. Also, read <a href='http://www.kalzumeus.com/2010/06/17/falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-names/'>this article</a>. Unfortunately, git appears to be stuck with these problems, when an author changes their name, and we don't have a concrete answer to it.
