Description
Specifically, https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/blob/develop/CONTRIBUTING.md#private-sign-off says:
> If you would like to provide your legal name privately to the Matrix.org Foundation
... but this codebase is managed by Element. (I think? At least, it's in the element-hq github org.) Why would I need to provide my legal name to the Matrix Foundation?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Open CONTRIBUTING.md and review the “Private sign-off” section linked in the issue. Verify whether the legal-name process is owned by the Matrix.org Foundation or Element, then update the wording so the responsible organization is accurate and the contribution guidance is unambiguous.
