I agree with Mathias and Hans, I also do not like this and this looks like some are more equal than others to outsiders. I have no problem when the mails are getting forward to the old user of the address, so that people who send a mail to some @openwrt.org address still reach the correct person, this can also stay activate forever when someone wants to maintain the service. The @openwrt.org addresses should not be used in communication, especially when it is related to OpenWrt, this includes S-o-b lines, copyright lines and outgoing communication.
