Hi

For general information, I am reaching out to emails, where we have patches submitted the last month, but I cannot find the relation to a license statement. This week it is 42 emails. I am pretty sure a lot of them is not really missing license statements, but have just changed email (which I then will register and keep track of).

the email is as follows:

Hi

We have cross checked git/gerrit patches with https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers <https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Developers> which contain all submitted licenses.

We could not find your email on the wiki page,  so we hope you will do  one of two:
if you have not submitted your license please do so (look at the wiki for instructions),
if you have changed your email, please respond to this mail and tell us your original email.

Sadly enough nowadays just writing good patches and submitting is not enough to ensure that the LibreOffice (and other FOSS projects) stays free, a license is needed.

We have registered your last patch as of xxx, and hope you will continue to help LibreOffice grow better

Last 12 month we have had 37.156 commits and 15.006 coming from new contributors. . Your patches are very valued, and working together as a community enables us to keep LibreOffice being THE office package.

Thanks for helping.
