Hello,
I got few complaints about forum registration form. The form has fields for address, phone number etc. ... There is a different sign up form that you reach from e.g. the wiki (en.opensuse.org) (the one with the green theme) that needs way less information.
It is removed. Now it leads to huge form that only the most interested and motivated will even try to fill out.
This green form is also able to create a Novell account with less mandatory information.
This is still old screen: https://features.opensuse.org/ICSLogin/?%22https://features.opensuse.org/%22 That leads to simple form: https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/createOpenSuseAccount.jsp?login=Si... Build service "Sign Up" link has direct access to that form: https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/createOpenSuseAccount.jsp?%22https... I didn't go farther as I did last time we had this discussion, but hiding simple form in misc places creates not so good picture about openSUSE. The openSUSE Team at SUSE may find that fixing this in accordance with current web trends (minimum questions for initial sign up, and more questions later, when a need arise) is one of essential ways to improve participation. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
