Not just the handbook. Whenever any dev retires, all docs which he is credited |
13 |
in should be updated with his new email, or no @gentoo.org email. |
14 |
This has been mentioned on #gentoo-doc a few weeks ago. |
15 |
Using the roll-call to replace the @gentoo.org email of a retired dev with his |
16 |
new one or no email is on my todo list. |

Atm, using the <dev> implies the dev is listed in the roll-call. |
28 |
The status can be tested to perform s/Member/Retired/ |
29 |
A fourth column with the email instead of the hardcoded text "All developers |
30 |
can be reached by e-mail using nickname@g.o." below the table is a |
31 |
trivial thing to do. |
32 |
Extending dev with something like |
33 |
<dev role="Contributor" nick="fnord" email="foo.bar@×××××.tv">Mr. Foo |
34 |
Bar</dev> would be no problem. |

Once you guys have made up your mind, please do file a bug for me as I tend to |
39 |
not read much of -dev. Thanks. |
