We accept contributions under a legally identifiable name, such as
73-
your name on government documentation or common-law names (names
74-
claimed by legitimate usage or repute). Unfortunately, we cannot
75-
accept anonymous contributions at this time.

### Private sign off
82-
83-
If you would like to provide your legal name privately to the Matrix.org
84-
Foundation (instead of in a public commit or comment), you can do so by emailing
85-
your legal name and a link to the pull request to dco@matrix.org. It helps to
86-
include "sign off" or similar in the subject line. You will then be instructed
87-
further.

Once private sign off is complete, doing so for future contributions will not be required.
