Make podmin e-mail public
I was working on personalizing my pod today, and I wanted to put the e-mail used to signal a problem on the home page. It was at the bottom of the page and I thought I should put it in the footer. I created a PR doing that, but Jonne pointed that it can be possible that podmins don't want their email public.
What do you think? Is that a problem? This address is used to point problems to podmins. Some problems need to be reported without having to log in. Do you agree to see your podmin email public ?

+1 for reasons stated below. Podmins opt-in to put a email even now (note, not their own email necessarely), so people shouting "privacy!!" have no argument there :)

not a podmin but I think this is the way to go as long as spam is not a problem

I want this but only as a contact form, possibly with captcha.

Diaspora pod are not designed to host millions of people, it could be a great start point to people who need a real person help and to join the network !

Simple solution, flick the PR to a user configurable option. As a podmin i understand the need for it, but right now would HATE for you to merge that without some config option that defaulted to NOT showing it.
