Hi all,

I know the official guidelines explicitly state that when submitting patches to the kernel the contributions must be signed with a real name and e-mail address, the reasons for this seem to be clear to me. The guidelines are less explicit when it comes to the tested-by field. Is it out of question to test a contribution and report the result using a pseudonym, even if it comes with a valid e-mail address?

No, please use real names for tested-by whenever possible as well.
