Email addresses that die are a lot less useful than email addresses that never die. I understand the desire to not have people misrepresent their level of affiliation with Mozilla, but I don’t believe technology or policy can solve that problem. Tying an address to “currently active” also means lots of headaches when dealing with contributors whose involvement is periodic, seasonal, or whatnot.
Was there consideration of a possible “once a mozillian, always a mozillian” attitude with respect to email addresses, modulo exceptions for egregious improper use? I for one would not begrudge previously-active mozillians who might still want to use their mozilla.org address if they’re proud that they earned one once upon a time. —david _______________________________________________ governance mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
