This does not look like an accurate email address at which you can be reached…

Hm, there are already some users.noreply.github.com emails in maintainer-list.nix, so I thought its legal.

Anyway, I prefer to be contacted via GitHub...

I’m not sure what the email field is actually used for nowadays, but I assume it’s a required field for a reason, and so I don’t think circumventing it with a fake address is a good idea.

I’d like to get clarification on whether we need to be requiring email addresses at all, but until then, I don’t think fake email addresses should be used…

It’s important that there be some way to contact maintainers privately if necessary. If you don’t want to use the email address currently in maintainer-list.nix for that, please replace it with a different one that could be used instead.

Additionally, your current email address in that list will of course remain in the git history forever, for what it’s worth.
