This seems to have been an alias used by an indeterminate group of
people, eg here:

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/174176421219.294105.3395783202038263246.pgcf@coridan.postgresql.org

I see only a few of these in the archives, so my preference is to just
drop it not try to trace down exactly who was behind the alias. In
general our intention is to credit actual individuals in the release
notes, so this doesn't qualify.
