Hi,

sorry can't comment on the ML atm as people will wonder why I respond to this 
but not to other "more important" mails...

Set aside that I think its complete nonsense not to share the list of mail 
addresses directly for any legal consideration - all these mail addresses were 
put into a public repo and used on a public ML and there is no reason not to 
reshare public info. However if people (next to JB who I don't believe is 
actually having any legal considerations...) don't like it...

The script should output two files then, so that no manual editing is required.
The voting system expects a file with mail addresses one per line and the ML 
then shall be given the very same list but with only the names.
Therefore I think the script should just output two files, ga_names.txt and 
ga_mails.txt.

Thanks for the patch!
