I hope not. ^_^;

Maybe something like the following would be appropriate? (Of course, the real issue is to get Mandrake to say "Please report this to someone@mandrake-linux.com" ... )
(For the Mandrake people, lkml gets occasional messages from people building Mandrake kernels where Menuconfig fails at the ALSA menu due to a bug that's been fixed in Mandrake sources for a while, the attached patch will at least make sure lkml and the previous kbuild maintainer don't get those messages anymore; it also hints that people should try with a newer distro kernel.)

Remove visible references to mec@shout.net from Menuconfig, since he no longer maintains it.
