From: Jonathan M Bresler To: Peter Pentchev Cc: David Wolfskill , bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, jmb@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: docs/71529: (Strongly!) suggested change to listed address for postmaster@ Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2004 08:47:38 -0400 (EDT) Actually, I would recommend removing my name, Jonathan Bresler, from the documentation regarding postmaster. David has been fulfilling that role very well for a significant period of time. I have left myself in the /etc/aliases file, as a backup should David have questions or be unavailable for some reason. At this point perhaps that is no longer needed as well. jmb On Fri, 10 Sep 2004, Peter Pentchev wrote: > On Thu, Sep 09, 2004 at 08:32:29AM -0700, David Wolfskill wrote: > > > > >Number: 71529 > > >Category: docs > > >Synopsis: (Strongly!) suggested change to listed address for postmaster@ > > >Originator: David Wolfskill > > >Description: > > Under "Postmaster," doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/contributors/article.sgml > > currently shows Jonathan's name & address address as well as mine. > [snip] > > I believe that changing the given email address(es) to just > > "postmaster@FreeBSD.org" would better serve folks in need of contacting > > Postmaster and suggest that the docs be changed to reflect that. > > What do you think about the following three patches?
