-0

- It won't solve the problem.

- It looks amateurish

We participate in a public development process.  There is no way to hide
our email addresses, and we shouldn't try.

Yup.  -0 here as well.

As simple as our script is, lots of spiders now do the converse:
s/_at_/@/g.  =)  The only thing would be to remove email addresses.

I think that's a good thing to have though - if we don't regularly
accept contributions from that person, we should have a contact
email address for them.  -- justin

Me too!

-0 here. If we remove it from CHANGES, then they just crawl the dev mailing
list archive. There isn't any reasonable way to avoid it, so let's not
obfuscate our materials.

- The change is too late for most contributors.

- The email addresses are in the mailing list archives and the bug database.
