+typo3.org — E-Mail Addresses
+============================
+
+Since the community is growing, we needed to have a written ruleset on how to use a personal @typo3.org address for communication to the outside. The rules as described below were voted on and accepted unisonous during the board meeting on October 11th 2010.
+
+..  _t3o-email-naming:
+
+Naming ruleset for new personal typo3.org mail addresses
+========================================================
+
+Instead of "[email protected]" or "[email protected]" new personal addresses will always be built as "[email protected]". This will avoid conflicts where multiple persons share the same firstname (sharing the mail address doesn't seem a clever solution).
+All existing address owners will get a "[email protected]" address, too. Their existing "[email protected]" or "[email protected]" address can be used further on, the new "[email protected]" will be redirected to the existing one. It's up to the owner, which one is used for communication to the outside.
+In the case that a second person with exactly the same name requires an address, a solution must be thought out that fits best for the situation.
+
+..  _t3o-email-new-rules:
