Hi Joe,

I am still planning to provide an improved version of the .mailmap
file in future and even got some mails outside of this list from
people who sent me their mail addresses so that the mappings are
correct later.

I am currently pretty busy with my thesis and as a result have not
much time to work on in. But will do again in approx. 3 weeks.

Whenever having some spare time, I work on
<https://github.com/ruderphilipp/linux/blob/mailmap-changes/shortlog.diff>
to not only find potential wrong mappings and to fix them for a final
patch but also to prepare an evidence for all these "disbelievers"
that my patch can improve overview and patch statistics. But this file
has 8600 lines -- so it is quite a lot of work for that I
unfortunately do not have time until my thesis is done.

Thank you very much for your request!
Philipp
