I question if there is a way to keep all communication in PHP Internals on PHP Internals, which would minimize the risk of someone reaching someone outside of PHP Internals. By that I mean, as it stands now, everyone's email is public and someone meaning to cause or threaten harm could personally target someone. Would it not be better if a system was designed to generate an anonymous email and only official PHP Team Members would know the true identity.
Thankfully, I have never read or see any abuse within PHP Internals or among The PHP Development. I am somewhat surprised to read this and I too am alarmed. I've experienced some less than appropriate contact elsewhere, but never within PHP. I do not doubt the possibility, though.
