Well, for me to use more than that name would require me to go beyond the submitted email and construct their full name. I actually know the last name, but because it was not supplied in the email (only "gabrielle"), I used that. Now, if the author wants to post their full name on patches, I would certainly use it. The email address is [email protected]. You will notice the "Proofreader" column on this web site has exactly the same problem: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Documentation_Proofreading You will also notice that the person has consistently posted using that name, so it should match pretty easily with an archive search: http://search.postgresql.org/search?m=1&q=gabrielle&l=&d=&s= I just did a search and the full name appears very rarely in our archives, but it does appear. -- Bruce Momjian <[email protected]> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. + -- Sent via pgsql-committers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-committers
