What about the end-user headache of having to change subscriptions/bugzilla 
accounts/aliases/etc. from [EMAIL PROTECTED] to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] should they turn dev?

Yeah, my bad..  Had I known that infrastructure implementation decisions could 
be decided by a GLEP with no infra input requested, I would have paid 
attention.

Besides, when I first read the glep "*TWO* months ago" there was nothing about 
email subdomains..  It was fine.. Therefore, I did not comment.

Yup.  And as soon as it caught my eye I weighed in..  and you're not happy 
with it.  -shrug-  Next GLEP will be how to use constructive SUBJECT lines 
for people who have too much email to keep up with so stuff like this will be 
caught sooner.

Foundation has nothing to do with this issue whatsoever.

So will be finding help from infra to implement this with that attitude.  
You're not helping the situation, Brian..  Kurt and Lance have spent the past 
few hours talking about implementing this while you blast them on the list.

Okay, you have already pinged me on IRC about this since my original 
correction was not good enough for you.  I corrected my wrong in this thread, 
but I still feel that the lack of delay between the changes and the vote was 
not enough for devs to comment (specifically Lance).  I don't care if I am a 
trustee or not, that's wrong.  After your last email, I don't think you are 
in any position to comment on behaviour.  ;)
