Not just the handbook. Whenever any dev retires, all docs which he is credited in should be updated with his new email, or no @gentoo.org email. This has been mentioned on #gentoo-doc a few weeks ago. Using the roll-call to replace the @gentoo.org email of a retired dev with his new one or no email is on my todo list. >> Danny > > The only problem is that it lists him as contactable by > "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" aka [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is false. > > I've actually wondered about this as well since I've been in projects as > a non-dev and Treecleaners has non-devs. Can we get some kind of > modification to the <dev> tag for non-gentoo contributors? Atm, using the <dev> implies the dev is listed in the roll-call. The status can be tested to perform s/Member/Retired/ A fourth column with the email instead of the hardcoded text "All developers can be reached by e-mail using [EMAIL PROTECTED]" below the table is a trivial thing to do. Extending dev with something like <dev role="Contributor" nick="fnord" email="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Mr. Foo Bar</dev> would be no problem. > I would agree with you that removing him would be immensely inconsiderate. Once you guys have made up your mind, please do file a bug for me as I tend to not read much of -dev. Thanks. Wkr, -- / Xavier Neys \_ Gentoo Documentation Project / /\ http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/
