Summary

Discovery (`grep -rln "bawbel.io@gmail.com" .`) found 4 files, not the 6 the original brief guessed -- `GOVERNANCE.md`, `README.md`, and `package.json` don't contain it.

  • `SECURITY.md` (2 occurrences), `CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, `docs/specs/ave-implementer-guide.md` swept to `aveproject.org@gmail.com`

`SECURITY.md` needed a judgment call: it uses the address in two genuinely different contexts -- one for reporting vulnerabilities in Bawbel's own tooling (scanner, PiranhaDB, ave-site), one for the AVE standard's own critical/pre-disclosure record-submission contact, explicitly distinguished in the file's own prose ("not a Bawbel security report"). Confirmed with the maintainer that both should move to the new address.

No Bawbel-attributed language needed rewriting beyond the address itself -- all 4 occurrences were plain "email X" phrasing, not "Contact Bawbel at X."

Test plan

  • `grep -rln "bawbel.io@gmail.com" .` -- zero results
  • `grep -rln "aveproject.org@gmail.com" .` -- 4 files (5 occurrences, SECURITY.md has 2)
  • `python3 scripts/validate_records.py` -- all 59 records still valid (this PR touches no records)

Swept SECURITY.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and
docs/specs/ave-implementer-guide.md for the old contact address,
replaced with aveproject.org@gmail.com. GOVERNANCE.md, README.md, and
package.json do not contain it -- confirmed via discovery grep rather
than assumed from the likely-locations list.

SECURITY.md had two occurrences in genuinely different contexts: one
for reporting vulnerabilities in Bawbel's own tooling (scanner,
PiranhaDB, ave-site), one for the AVE standard's own critical/
pre-disclosure record-submission contact (explicitly distinguished in
the file's own prose as "not a Bawbel security report"). Both changed
to the new address per explicit confirmation.
