My email address has been unchanged and exposed for nigh on 25 yrs
now.  I don't think exposure on the lilypond website is likely to have

That's a reasonable thing to do, but it has no effect on reducing
spam.

That's a good suggestion.  All the developers are contactable
via the devel list, and anyone can post there via gmane without
needing to subscribe.
