This - sometimes - might be even more challenging than finding a real name. There are valuable contributors who deserve to be invited without writing a single devlist message. The new genertion of developers try to avoid mailing lists and email communication. I had one such example recently, also some of our PMC members almost never communiicate via devlist/mailing lists. It might seem trivial, but I think it's importantt to make sure that you have the right person - there are many people with similar names sometimes, especially when they are from different culture, it might be easy to make a mistake. Occasionally you might find two people with the same first and last name and not be sure who is who. I sometimes struggle with making sure that I have the right email connected with the "real" person (and their "github id") - especially that some privacy aware people choose to anonymise their email address in GitHub. Some guidelines for that (not sure if it's worth to add such details in : * check if the person communicated over devlist * check email the person publishes on GitHub * check emails of commits associated with git commit (might be anonymized by GitHub) * check with a committer who might know that person * comment an issue/PR of the person in GitHub to contact you -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
