So the firstname.lastname removal has been done and went fairly well with one exception. Many of the ambassadors use firstname.lastname when dealing with other people. They like a good, professional looking email address. Unfortunately, not everyone thinks of this when they're creating their account name and trying to be an ambassador with [EMAIL PROTECTED] may cause issues.

I've added a few exceptions but I really don't want our group maintaining this list. We're not in the business of user administration, that always gets delegated to the specific group owners/admins. This puts us in an awkward position because of the sensitive nature of the alises file we can't just let everyone edit this file. Here's what I'd like to propose:

Thomas Chung has offered to maintain this list for the ambassadors. Since its a manual intervention we're not as open to attack/collisions as we were when it was automated. We'll continue to use CVS so we get notifications when a change goes out. Additionally I've given the following guidelines to Thomas should we chose to go this route:

* All alises for the ambassadors must be [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* Exceptions are made by Thomas Chung for the ambassadors only. He has the final say as to whether someone is eligible for the alias * Careful precautions must be made to not cause collisions. (This would include looking out for suspicious aliases like [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Does anyone have any issues / concerns with this?


No. It's fine; If you have some 'strange looking' login/account-name like the fluffyone23 you mentioned, it's better to go with [EMAIL PROTECTED] For me [EMAIL PROTECTED] is fine. :-)

Best,
Oliver
