- Sometimes, things get a little heated in GitHub discussion threads / reviews.
- Occasionally, these conversations escalate to a point where they might be considered Code of Conduct violations or could result in a member being banned.
- To be a good community stewards, some maintainers would prefer to reach out to the offender in some cases (per their org or CoC policy).
- However, GitHub currently has no easy way to contact someone who doesn't explicitly list their e-mail address.
NOTE: we'll refer to the person who maintainers are requesting to talk to as "the offending user" as that was the original context for this proposal, but it doesn't always have to indicate an offense.
