One thing I noticed when I reviewed one of the .mailman patches you've
submitted was that some authors have multiple email addresses.  Do we really
want to include them all?  I thought the current AUTHORS file typically only
has one (hopefully "latest" email address)
I think when people move to a new company and they contributed on
behalf of or with the approval of their prior company the prior
company still deserves the credit.
Since credit is usually given by using the company's email address I
think retaining the old addresses is better.

Cheers,
Balint
