This is technically okay, but there are questions towards copyright assignment
that need addressing before this can go in: What exactly does Contributor:
above mean? The same as From: usually would? If so, why is it not From:, and
why are instead you named as the author (by the email's From:)? For all of Ron,
Zac, and you the question further is whether there is a copyright assignment in
place (I have no clue whether Microsoft have a company assignment), or whether
instead you need to obtain / provide proper Signed-off-by:.
