Patchwork can incorrectly assign ownership. See 
https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/patch/12680/

The author is Sam John as identified by Message ID as well as the From 
field in the headers, yet Patchwork attributes this patch to "Oliver 
Collyer via ffmpeg-devel", a name which appears nowhere in the headers 
or in the submitted patch. The downloaded mbox patch shows the same 
wrong attribution. Does anyone know what's going on?
