Actually, old consensus was to use just the account name if the
person(s) that did the submit had an account on freefall, so green is
following the consensus.

However, given the spread of (necessary) account deletion, account
renaming and .nofinger files, I'm starting to wonder if we should
either request that people use full e-mail addresses, and/or keep a
web-page with all past and present @FreeBSD.org addresses mapped to
person (and possibly alternative e-mail address for the "past"
entries).

What do the people think?

Eivind, intentionally not moving this to -chat due to wanting all
committers to have a chance to join the discussion.
