There is already an email address in eachcommit, some addresses are in file MAINTAINERS, and you can also add a personal entry in the QEMU wiki (linked to this URL: http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/StartHere#Developers_and_Maintainers). Currently there are copyright statements with and without email address. I personally prefer those without, especially when email address are known to be volatile. Even email addresses at redhat.com (or other companies) are only valid as long as the owner is related to RedHat. Regards Stefan Weil

So I want to correct my email address. :) Of course fixing a wrong email address is better than keeping a wrong address in the code. But will you also fix the address when you change it some day, maybe years later? What about old versions of QEMU? They will still show an old email address. Most email addresses have a limit life time. That's why I think that _no_ email address in source code might be better. It is still possible to find authors by looking at the Signed-off-by in the commit message or by searching the QEMU wiki or other sources of information.

Most email addresses have a limit life time. Well... Just let him fix his mail address (he want it in the source code). Maybe we can discuss if we want the mail address in the code while reviewing new coming patch next time. ;) Regards, chenwj
