Say, why are you guys still emphasizing fuddy duddy mail addresses
when like for 10 years now we can go to the person's web page, which
of course will mention his mail address.

I have done (setq add-log-mailing-address "http://jidanni.org/";)
in the meantime.

Therefore make a new variable to contain the person's website, and use
it if set, instead. Also maybe angle brackets are an issue.

Mention it in Info and docstring.

I mean say we encounter a developer's name like "Bdale Garbee", and we
are overwhelmed with curiosity about how this "Bdale" arose, and if he
was the famous boy named after a golden retriever, Barksdale?

Well, do you suppose we want to risk asking this to his face, or
instead say, saunter around his web page looking for the answer?
