I don't agree. IMHO the most sensible thing is to sign off (i.e. put
your sob line below) all the things that come from you. So it's

	Signed-off-by: author
	Acked-by: someone
	Signed-off-by: forwarder
	Signed-off-by: maintainer

if someone already acked before forwarder sent out the mail. If the ack
is between forwarder and maintainer it was the latter who added the Ack.
I'm not sure it's formalized this way, but like that it makes most sense
to me and I seem to recall having read somewhere that the footers are
supposed to tell something about the order of people involved.

So Stefan did it exactly as i would have done it.

Best regards
Uwe
