I did not know about your code :) [and I'm subscribed to this list from 
this morning]. As you can see from bugzilla patch was based on code from 
rhbz#210618 (released in update in June 2008).

Question is where to put such contributions. I usually just add it to 
commit in git, in spec file there is just name of who builds the 
package. In fact, my name is in code only on two places (one in obsolete 
ChangeLog and other one when license was changed according to 
communication with author of send_arp.c).
Do you think it will be worth effort?

marx,
