Ok, it should be "really fixed" now. Everything in contact.txt and
config.yaml should override everything in people.txt. Which is as it
should be, as the latter is auto-generated and the former is human-
generated.

The reason for the weirdness with Burning House Zendo, btw, is that I
have a heuristic when I have multiple names for a given email address to
prefer the longest one, which is clearly deficient in many cases.

Apparently I broke that a few revisions ago. Should be fixed now.

Let me know how it's working for you now.
