I do that as well.

Also, there is a point about credit that I don't think has been made: Even
though I don't have write access to the Emacs repository I'm mentioned in
some Changelogs because of fixes I've mailed when reporting bugs. I think I
was somewhat thrilled the first times developers put my name there instead
of their own when checking in those fixes. It is maybe not a big point, but
still a point, since that feeling can be an impetus to making more fixes.
