Hey if this makes it congratulations! I've never contributed to something so ubiquitous before but often thought how satisfying it'd be.
Like in years down the line, maybe as you retire and hang up your keyboard, you could sit back and smile as you realise your code is still deployed on millions, possibly billions of devices? That the code could far outlast 99.9% of code code anyone has ever written?

Perhaps they require copyright reassignment? I can't deny I'm gonna be really happy if they do use it.
