Hi Rahul, Corresponding to each of the projects listed on that page, you'll see a field named "Technical Contact". You can simply click on the link in that field to visit the wiki page of the developer concerned with that project. The common email format is something like this - if the id in "Technical Contact" is for e.g. xyz@ then the corresponding email address will be xyz@freebsd.org Hope this helps.
