I tend to think that we should keep the fix in place. And then, as
volunteer time permits, we can sanitize other vectors of
spam-harvester information, as appropriate.
Rather than hassling Ceri for not solving the whole problem, he should
be praised for starting to do something about it and others should be
encouraged to help.
If you need to get the addresses for someone in the pr system, then if
you can login to freefall, you can still do so.
