You will fix your name in gnunet.scm some day¹, right? If you are not
going to modify gnunet.scm, we can fix it right now.
.mailmap is not for mail. It is used by "git shortlog" (see "man
git-shortlog"), and as I wrote, we use this output to generate AUTHORS
file in a release tarball, so keeping this output clean is important.
