The "continuity" aspect of not having your email change does matter IMHO in that we should always be reachable, at expense of not immediately disclosing our employer. Other reasons I heard was that people posting publicly with a @broadcom.com email grew tired of being asked when they would get a working WLAN driver for their card. Now we supposedly have a special SMTP server that would not mangle the patches and also not add the annoying legalese footer at the end telling you to destroy the email. Does it matter though as long as Jonathan Corbet knows about our employer at the time for his lwn.net stats :)? -- Florian
