[alsa-devel] [PATCH] remove email addresses from MODULE_AUTHOR tag

Hi Takashi.

Following up the recent MODULE_MAINTAINER discussion on LKML:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/4/170

that concluded with MODULE_MAINTAINER not being a good idea, here's a patch 
that just deletes the email addresses from the MODULE_AUTHOR tags for ALSA.

The email address is the problem I was trying to fix; with multiple current 
and non-current authors and maintainers who might not even be authors the 
address(es) available from the tag confuse the issue of whom to contact. 
It's moreover also information that easily outdated.

A bit more than half of the tags in the kernel don't include an email 
address already (the core contributors typically don't include any) and I'll 
submit patches removing more.

(this was generated against current -linus).
