Attachmate OWNS Opensuse and most of the remnants of Novell, so its not exactly a third party. Odd that you put your email on a mailing list that gets echoed all over the world, but not on a bug reporting tool. If you are going to be that worried about sharing an email address while still running FREE software you might just sign up for a free email address to use just for that purpose. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I wrote ADDRESS, not email-address. The registrations requires full personal data, street address, phone number, job title, etc. All mandatory fields. Maybe you should verify the process and precisely read what I wrote before writing condescending replies.

Maybe you should consider your options before announcing your condescension. You are nowhere required to provide a *correct* address, ..., except for an email address to receive notification. Last time I checked, mandatory ment an entry was required, not an *accurate* entry.

He is right that SUSE, aka Novell, aka Atachmate, is wrong requiring such private data to register in order to post a bug for an opensource project. It is excesive. Many people complain because of this, an many turn away and do not register. This is a known fact. You are also right that you can write false data on the form, and many do so; but this is also wrong. However, there is another address where you can register, and doesn't ask any of that absurd data; but, I don't remember it. Maybe someone knows. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

I find it worrying that some people were suggesting that giving deliberate lies in response to questions was normal behaviour, as opposed to trying to fix the software to ask reasonable questions.

Well, if Opensuse doesn't need bug reporters with nearly 20 years of practical hands-on experience with Linux, specificly SuSE distributions, just because they are no Lemmings who freely give out out all personal data to a company located in a country with almost no privacy and data protection legislation, that's fine with me.

That doesn't make it right of Attachmate to demand this data in the first place. For a bug report for an Open Source community project, no personal data is neccessary. And having to lie just for filing a bug report is absurd!

What has not wanting to give out my home address and telephone number to some arbitrary company, which doesn't need to know, have to do with paranoia? And what has the fact that I have email-addresses and a website to do with that? That smells a bit like somebody is making up fake arguments to distract from Attachmate's hunger for data - which is not really astonishing, considering that they offer among others "Enterprise fraud management", so they probably try to get people's data any way they can... -S -- (o_ Stefan Gofferje | SCLT, MCP, CCSA //\ Reg'd Linux User #247167 | VCP #2263 V_/_ Heckler & Koch - the original point and click interface -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

--- Please file a bug in your distro's bugzilla, not here, as there's nothing we can do with a vendor-specific kernel, especially one tainted with closed source kernel modules.
I checked the Opensuse bugtracker but it requires a full registration with Novell through a third-party company (Attachmate Group) and I am not in the habit of broadcasting my address and phone no. on the net, surely not to some service provider overseas, so from my side, there will be no bug report in the Opensuse Bugzilla.
Stefan, you can create an account with just your name, country and email address if you go to: http://en.opensuse.org/ Click Sign Up (upper right corner) Or go directly to: https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/createOpenSuseAccount.jsp This is the "openSUSE account sign up". This takes you to a way less strict register form than the one on Bugzilla, but will create an account on the same servers. With this account you can login to Bugzilla.

That avenue has been attempted and there is supposed to be a link available where that information is not required but is not widely known. If one desires to make a bug report and does not want to divuldge personal information, why would it be better to make the bug report be as much later as obtaining a change in the requirements would unlikely take? Be real, the bug reports are desired more than the accuracy of the information requested to obtain sales promotion data. The logon data appears little changed from what I remember of the earlier Novell site.

Well, I don't think that asking for a postal address or phone is any moral screening. If there were means of ensuring that reporters are honest beforehand, that would be nice.

I think his mail provider did that, not him. He merely didn't actively edit it out.
