The URL for -mm tree bisection was also missing and he mailed me a link.
Perhaps time to update the URLs generally?

Andrew, could you tell us where to find this now ?
That way we could update the URLs instead of removing them.

Also, should we change all instances of your old email addresses to the current one ?

Cheers

My zip account died for some reason.

We probably don't need the link at all - I think someone copied the
guts of that doc into SubmittingPatches.

> Also, should we change all instances of your old email addresses to the current one ?

If they're there, please just delete any email address.  People can use
the real name an an index into MAINTAINERS to find the current email
address.

Do you have a current copy of tpp.txt so that we can check that?

Remove Andrew Morton's email addresses.
There is still one akpm@osdl.org living in linux-2.6.27/Documentation/zh_CN/SubmittingDrivers
but I am not sure how not to break this file. Li Yang CC'ed for this reason.

Should we think about systematically removing maintainers' email addresses from the code and documentation ?

I guess the easiest thing to do is have a Documents/mail_addresses file
that gets referred to (and updated) as and when.

I guess the only case where this falls down is if we have identically
named maintainers, either now or in the future?

In that case how do we tell them apart, apart from e-mail address a la
'Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org>'?

We'll probably have to use those poor souls' middle names. Some are
luckier than others when it comes to that.

We have two dupes now.  One is the Dan Williamses and I forget the
other.

We don't even seem to be able to use last names to tell people apart right
now... it's amazing how many people think I should be able to do something
useful with ptrace patches (that really should go to Roland McGrath ;)

Remove Andrew Morton's http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/ urls, update to new
ones when necessary, delete references otherwise.
