Re: Request for email removal

Hi Robert,

This request reached the admins from the site too. Based on contact with
his brother (as requested by his mother), I was able to change the mail
addresses associated with his GitLab account to something that ends up
nowhere. Unfortunately, the situation with the mailing lists isn't too easy
to identify: there is no "user" to be found in mailman3, even though his
mail addresses seem to be receiving mail from our lists. After a lot of
searching, I found his mail address in the list of "nonmembers" in
clo-devel@ . Which other mailing lists he might be a "nonmember" of, I
can't see without opening each of our <hundreds> mailing lists manually.
I'll be happy to remove him from the lists as soon as I learn about them,
as I have done with the prior requests. However, I would say that his
mother who is the keeper of his mail accounts, is really in the best
position to stop these mail flows: it's a matter of unsubscribing from
these mailing lists, which I admit is probably not as easy for her as it is
for our bunch -- which is also why I helped resolve the situation as soon
as I learned about it.

As for the GitLab account: that's not part of any watch lists as far as I
can see. The only reason to keep his account on GitLab is - as I have
discussed this weekend with his brother - because there is an ASDF fork
with commits that have not been integrated yet upstream. I promised his
brother to contact you and ask you whether these commits need to be
preserved. If not, his brother is fine with deleting Elias's account from
GitLab which addresses at least part of the problem. Could you have a look
at his fork and let me know what to do?

Regards,

Erik.
