Thank you for your answers, for now we will alternate the author in
the git patch files, but I will mostly send the mails to this mailing
list. (And we now both have send a mail, confirming that all our
patches are LGPLv3+/MPL)

Best regards
Sören

Well, we may need to adapt the tools computing the stats and credits to
take this into account. We will need to get all the names pretty easily
from git to get everyone properly thanked. Isn't the sign-off way the
best one?

       Signed off typically means, not "I also wrote this", but "I reviewed
this, and I certify its origin" - I think we want to retain the latter
meaning.

       So - I would be inclined to have some different way just for Soeren and
his (thus far anonymous) friend ;-) either that - or we encourage them
to alternate credits in their patches (which might be easier) :-)

Yeah, I think alternate credit is probably the easiest route here.

       HTH,
