I understand the wish of everyone to be mentioned in an extension, but we 
can't have so much credits at every place. I see the authorname and email 
in em_conf.php as a contact. 
but does I need to contact everyone in a dev-team? 

easily in each (PHP-)file of an extension the individual author(s) can be 
named and all names (and emails) could be mentioned in the manual.

If no leader of an extension build by a team can be named, why not name 
it '<ext>-team' and a new email with internal multi-forwarding to each 
team-member should not be a problem nowadays.

in this way we don't need changes in TER and EM. who would make all those 
changes? IMHO those people could do better (more needed) things.
