Then why not make this the default in the parent POM?

Now that's an idea.  So I'll throw in a bit of desinformation with
future releases :-)

Seriously, I'll probably make sure to insert dev@commons.apache.org in
the future.

The issue here I think is that the system account name is pasted
automatically. If you build the release from your son's account (or if
you have exotic tastes) you may end up with a 'Build-By: spacepirate'
field in the manifest, which is a bit embarrassing. Thus the default
recommendation to use the apache ID. But 'stefan' is perfectly fine to me.

Well, this was brought up during the vote for commons lang 3.2 RC1 [1].
To be honest, I did not question it back then... :-)

Well, this must have been that way for all releases I've ever
created. :-)

If I had the choice I'd rather remove the manifest attribute completely
than filling it with noise (and yes, I do consider my apache ID noise in
this case).  Why would anybody care?  And do I want people sending me
mails asking about a release I cut years ago because my name is in their
MANIFEST?
