Did you read my email that there are _TWO_ sign up forms?
There is: https://www.suse.com/selfreg/jsp/createAccount.jsp which is long with lots of fields to fill in
and there is (reachable from e.g. build.opensuse.org): https://secure-www.novell.com/selfreg/jsp/createOpenSuseAccount.jsp
Which only needs your name and country as mandatory fields.
Just point cautious users to the second one.
might it be an idea for the opensuse.org webmaster to cause _every_ account creation request originating from _any_ opensuse.org page to present the short form, only.. on the other hand, if suse.de, novell or netiq.com wishes to have all requests originating from their pages to use only the long form, then their webmasters could require that. think about it: 99.9n% of all new potential openSUSE users/contributors will never need accounts at any of Novell, NetIQ, SUSE.de or Attachmate. and, if an openSUSE user/contributor decides they do need account holder access to those non-openSUSE sites, then the additional personal info they need can be collected simply by presenting the long form pre-populated with the short form's data whenever they might try to access account holder only areas/data/repos/etc.. dd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
