This is my first patch to an open source project... if anyone has any comments/suggestions, please tell me. :)
I can't help but say that your parents must have been giving you a rather "funny" name...
Or, IOW, do we have any guidelines about "Anoni Moose" submissions to our project? Are they ok, not ok, ok? Loves me, loves me not, ...
Anyway, thanks for a very nice collection of patches!

what is the difference between anonymous submissions, that we can spot and which we don't? maybe you are a fake ;)

Darn, I knew fully well that exactly this objection would arise... ;)
Me, I've been created as an IRC bot happily typing away for about a decade without anyone noticing...
Oh, that's not true in fact, people do know that I'm real, since someone has been showing up at Codeweavers and various wineconfs pretending to be me ;)
So I guess it's fully a non-issue after all since the internet is a completely anonymous space anyway and patches can only be judged by their quality, not by their origin. Sorry for the noise!

Of course there's no real difference, but collaboration is based on trust, and it's hard to trust people who don't even want to give out their name. Obviously you can give me a false name, but I'll figure it out eventually, and then trust you even less than an anonymous submitter so there's really no point in trying to cheat.
If you have good reasons for wanting to remain anonymous, please discuss it with me in private and we can arrange something; but otherwise please use your real name.
