Unfortunately we can't accept contributions without a sign-off.
Please note that we can only accept contributions under a legally identifiable name,
such as your name as it appears on government-issued documentation or common-law names

alias and cannot accept anonymous contributions.
If you would prefer to sign off privately instead (so as to not reveal your full
name on a public pull request), you can do so by emailing a sign-off declaration
and a link to your pull request directly to the [Matrix.org Foundation](https://matrix.org/foundation/)
at `dco@matrix.org`. Once a private sign-off has been made, you will not be required
to do so for future contributions.
