Some more style issues, after addressing feel free to add

Since you are submitting this the order of the above SoB chain is a
bit strange. I think something like

SoB: Alexander
Co-developed-by: Alexander
SoB: David

is expected (same for patch 2).

GUID

Same for all code where it appears.

I wouldn't mind having this on one line.

Ditto.

Ditto.

Can be one line.
